As a working class, gender-abundant artist, rexy’s work is a love letter to NYC and radical communities grounded in a politics of resistance, healing, and resilience. in all of rexy’s creative forms, he explores the power of revolutionary love in the face of loveless political structures. rexy is also a practitioner of multiple healing modalities and offers workshops and mentorship on spirituality and building intuition with a focus on healing as a revolutionary practice. rexy’s book of poems and illustrations, when there is no one and there is everyone is available from Magic Helicopter Press. They graduated from the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in 2024.

    Found and bought the book on Audible, and have been enjoying it. Was at first thrown, thinking this is the Dan Jones of the "Castles", and other English history series/books. (As clear in this footage, they're obviously not the same.) Still, I'm happy to report that they do both have the wonderful caramel voice and English diction, delivering the thoughtfully written material, that makes it a pleasurable listen!

    U.S. expatriate watching from Holland. I only just found your Facebook page and rushed here to catch the broadcast. Thanks to all for your efforts on behalf of our country. From this side of the ocean it looks extremely disturbing back home and it's scary as hell. I can't bear to think about the danger my kids and their kids and grandkids might have to face if we fail to defeat these evil men. Two of my grandkids are members of the LGBTQ+ community and I'm especially terrified for them. So thankful that there are more of us than there are of "them" and that we can prevail if we all vote and follow through to ensure everyone's votes are counted.

    I thank this queer cooperative for creating this illuminating production on the issue of Palestine. Those who, like the Israeli far right, theocrats and unabashed zionists, are capable of such brutality to an entirely innocent people will in time turn their hatred, enmity and brutality on other minorities whom will also be used as scapegoats. Gay men and women who might flaunt their apparent freedoms on Tel Aviv beaches today will tomorrow suffer similar depradations and oppression which for 76 years has been meted out to the Palestinians. As a black man I know that I must stand with all those who are or can be othered simply for being not being a member of the dominant group.

    Hi there, I saw your UA-cam [ Bureau of General Services-Queer Division ] channel video, You have uploaded many beautiful videos. But your video doesn't get views and subscriptions, This is because your title, keyword, tag, and thumbnail are not properly SEO, so your video is not getting views and subscribers. if you fix them you will get better results. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks and Regards, Mahmud

    This was great! The book is moving, incredibly powerful, and lingers long after the last sentence ends. In the reviews I haven't read as much as I expected about how deeply authentic the protagonist Trey experiences the staggering horror that unfolded in the '80s as AIDS unleashed its wrath. More than anything else, this book is essential reading for anyone who will benefit from understanding the absolute nightmare of AIDS and brings greater awareness and appreciation to the countless people who dedicated every ounce of their being to help the dying as the walls came crumbling down around them. I lived through those years at the same age as Trey in and around the city and it permanently altered an entire generation of gay men, or what's left of us, as well as all the allies like Angie. What a gorgeous book, I truly hope it's the first of many as we continue following Trey on his journey into adulthood. Sequel, please!
