#BlackHistory- E.Lynn Harris was an American Openly Gay author. He was best known for his depictions of African-American men who were on the down-low and closeted. He authored ten consecutive books that made The New York Times Best Seller list, making him among the most successful African-American or gay authors of his era.

#BlackHistory - “Larry Levan was the resident DJ of Paradise Garage and became known for his epic control of the dance floor. His sets became so well known that he would be approached by record companies to help them break their records and performers like Madonna (who filmed her first video there), Duran Duran, Whitney Houston and New Order made appearances at the Paradise Garage. As a master DJ, Levan began producing tracks that would work for his dance floor and was one of the first great remixers as well as the creator of some classic disco/house jams.” - Brooklyn Digital Conservatory 🎥 - Pioneers

Trans Icon Marsha P. Johnson To Receive Park Named In Her Honor

“A park in Brooklyn, New York, is set to be renamed after Marsha P. Johnson, a notable trans activist in LGBTQ+ history and integral figure in the Stonewall Uprising. The park is currently known as the East River State Park, and it will now be the first in New York to be named after an openly LGBTQ+ person.”

Birds of Prey introduces DCEU films’ first gay character: It’s ‘really fantastic,’ says star Rosie Perez

“Montoya is canonically gay in the comics and there has been speculation as to whether the movie would address this in any way. Birds of Prey does, in fact, mark Perez's place as the first openly gay character in the DCEU film canon.”

The DCEU will soon grow even larger with the release of Birds of Prey next week, which will add not one but four new badass women to the film canon. One of those women is Renee Montoya (played by the iconic Rosie Perez), a hard-nosed cop who is determined to rid the city of Gotham of its seedy under...

How The Black Trans Travel Fund Is Taking A Creative Approach To Addressing A National Epidemic - Blavity

"The overall mission of the Black Trans Travel Fund is to help allies leverage their resources, and provide Black transgender women with the financial resources needed to be able to self-determine safer alternatives to travel, where they will be less likely to experience verbal harassment or physical violence," he said.”

After attending multiple vigils for various Black trans women who had been murdered in 2019, Devin Lowe was overcome with anger. The 27-year-old heard a lot of talk about the need to protect Black trans women as violence increased, but also noticed that people didn't actually do much to solve the pr...

“After self-releasing the infectious earworm to SoundCloud and iTunes the day after he recorded it, Nas turned his attention to TikTok, where it eventually went viral thanks to his inventive #Yeehaw challenge and tireless promotion via Reddit, Twitter and Instagram. Then it cracked the Billboard Hot 100, and just as “Old Town Road” was about to take over the top spot on the country chart in March, Billboard disqualified it as “a mistake,” claiming the song exhibited too much trap and not enough twang. What followed was a controversy over perceived racism and whether genres in music matter at all anymore. (Today, nearly 10 months and 1.8 billion streams later, it still stings for Nas, who says, “I don’t feel like any specific place in the music industry accepts me as a whole.”) @lilnasx ✨❤️✨

AL woman mothering LGBTQ teens after son’s suicide

“Nigel's death birthed a campaign focused on suicide awareness and the importance LGBTQ-acceptance in homes, schools and churches. She makes sure she is accessible to any LGBTQ teen who needs a listening ear by maintaining Nigel's Instagram account and creating a Facebook group. Connecting with LGBTQ youth has become part of Camika Shelby's grieving process. Her son's spirit was made of sunshine and this is her way of keeping his encouraging legacy alive.”

"I don't want it to be, 'the 15-year-old that committed suicide,'" Camika Shelby said during a Facebook live interview with Al.com. "I want it to be 'the 15-year-old whose suicide changed the world.'"

Joon Park grew up in Fort Lee, NJ. In this episode, they reflect on how their Korean identity impacted their relationship with their sexuality. Joon examines how they went from wanting to shed their Korean identity as a high schooler to fully embracing all the intersections of their identity. “I say queer person of color all the time just because I think that my queerness and POC identity are so inextricably linked.”
