I love this, but I wish it wasn't so US-centric. The title made me think it would be a more global look at activism.

Yeah USians talk about the US as of it's the only place that exists. It gets annoying sometimes to hear "this country" as if I live there which I don't.

I think it's because the US is a very popular/well known/large country. But I do agree that we get too much attention and other countries should get more attention because, though it isn't amazing, we have it fairly good here in the US where in some countries it is much worse.

Only reason I knew about any of these events is because of this great podcast called Making Gay History. It has interviews with a lot of early LGBT activists and its really informative!

Where can I listen to the podcast?

I am a cis woman. I have never heard of this history ever in my life. I'm 40 years old. It's a dam shame how bias our education system is. This history is very important. I want to be aware.

Love him, as an actor and human being. Why didn’t I know his character’s name until this week on Pose? Also... introducing it with a question seems like a really awkward choice: “Pray Tell, are you positive?”

Dayton Waiariki-wilson yeah. This is part of the history we SHOULD be taught in school. The history that helps us understand why the US and the world is the way it is today. Not just some blurbs on 1776 and 'oh yeah, WWI'. Didn't even learn about Vietnam and my school loved teaching about war.

Great storytelling, and Billy Porter is fantastic, lovely illustrations as well! Thank you for informing us on the forgotten past

I love this We Need more Queer History to be taught and learn. So important for people gay and straight or however they identify themselves to know of LGBT History

Love that they used Posca markers, they're as bright as lgbt history

Nice video I wish I had at least a small copy of the sheet with the drawings

This channel needs to have billions of subscribers. Thank you them for making such high quality and educational content!!

props to my school for distributing this video to us

Wow, Billy, incredible history in addition to all that happened during Stonewall! We have fought ALL along and will continue to do so!! ✊🔥🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

YES MAMA TEACH THE CHILDREN

I want that drawing as a print. That'd be amzing

i adore billy porter! he is so eloquent and a phenomenal actor

This was so captivating! I loved it

Thank you SO MUCH for this!!! it's so important to your communities' history would love a follow up to this, with the events from stonewall to the present

What followed Stonewall is much more important than what preceded it. The radical gay liberation movement took hold in the 70s. But it's nonetheless interesting to underline that it all began in imperial Germany with Magnus Hirschfeld.

Fausto Levantesi I’m not saying you’re wrong, but what came first is definitely important. This activism likely paved the way for Stonewall and what came afterwards

It’s sad that lgbt youth in America are watching more and more anti lgbtq laws being out into place, specifically ones trying to criminalize HRT and other gender affirming care. As someone in this country who is getting gender affirming care it really makes me disappointed, and even a little scared about what our future is going to look like here

Wow! Thanks for this and the artwork rocks!! I kinda want a poster of it :) 💗🕊

I love him!!! Great video

Thank you for sharing our history!

Amazing video! Thank you for this info!

thank you for this video

I would love a video like this, but focusing on events outside the US.

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND IMPORTANT

I need a print of that illustration!

billy porter seems like an amazing person and i wish him every happiness

This is amazing! Thank you!

Thank you

I love how the illustrator didn't waste space, it was satisfying to me

This is awesome. Happy pride!

I love this I would love to know more about my history about the story of us Edit: I also love how powerful and potent his voice is

Billy porter I love you!

love it!!!!!!!!

I watched an episode of SVU on Netflix with him as a guest star and this video was on my KZread feed literally the next day

could you add proper captions please?? :)

Billy Porter is so awesome. I can watch any documentary he narrates.

wow this gives me chills!!

I would love to get a print of this drawing!! Beautiful

Stormé, one of the people at Stonewall, said they weren’t riots. (Ofc it’d be fine if it was.)

So happy to see the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence getting mentioned here

Wasnt he on law and order svu

thanks celtics

I love his acting and I usually watch anything he's acting in, which is why I'm so upset that I can't watch Pose because it isn't on TV in the country I'm in and I can no longer use Kodi. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Billy Porter is an icon

Erm, is there any way you would make posters out of this drawing and sell it? That'd be awesome!!

Love shouldn't smell like poo!

i LOVE this person's voice and diction mother of hell,,

Let's not forget Harry Hay's Homosexual rights march in Hollywood in the 193O's, if not late 2O's. The first in the nation I do believe. ♥

I want a copy of that banner!

I ask for help and assistance in removing homophobic content. This person, who is listened to as a teacher, promotes hatred in the LGBT community: kzread.info/dash/bejne/popqpdGKmcvXkbw.html If you want to help, go and leave a complaint about inappropriate content.

This is a video about rarely known lgbt+ history in the Usa (and it should probably mention that it’s focusing on American history). I know ppl in the comments are upset at how US-centric this is but I think the issue isn’t this video, but that there should be more education about the global struggle of the Lgbtq community

what about reprerations for blacks

But masc4masc right? Lmfao let’s do better inside the community. We need to know our own history.

It is my solemn wish that Billy Porter leaves the silver screen and never comes back. I do not like the roles he portrays, and find him to be quite annoying.

Who's this Fruit loop ?

"Gay" organizations and history not "Queer." That word is disrespectful to elder gays and lesbians.. the people this video is about.
