    It was a lesbian festival. Not queer! Just to be clear.

    Thanks for this informative video. I never realized what a huge role Leslie Feinberg played in this. One of the greats in the movement and I feel so honored to have had the opportunity to meet Leslie in the 90's. One of the highlights of my youth! Thanks for continuously schooling me and helping me fill in the gaps of my knowledge.

    Hi, I love your videos. I was looking for videos showcasing bands like Strawberry Switchblade, and I found your old video about Strawberry Switchblade. I loved it a lot, and I was so pleased to open your channel and see that you’re still posting. I think all of your videos are very entertaining and informative, and your commentary is pleasant too! I’m a “baby goth” (I’m young and just got into the goth subculture) and while I know your channel isn’t goth focused, it’s helped me learn stuff about all kinds of subcultures and music!!

    Why didn’t you cover the lesbian couple who got murdered by one of these "transwomen" who demanded to be entered into Mitchfest? Weren’t they relevant to the story or didn’t they fit your male centered agenda?
    Thinking male exclusion is somewhat "Terf" comes from a place of such privilege. Some of us experience insane patriarchal violence like human trafficking and we can tell you, males will be males. We NEED male exclusionary spaces.

      Probably because there's no evidence that Charlotte Reed or Patricia Wright ever attended the festival and the murders, happening in Oakland, certainly had no connection. The only connection was through a motorcycle club in California.

      I'm just learning about this whole movement and liberation, and the land projects. I have a coworker who spent over 30 years on a woman's farm. Seems like biological women are being denied autonomy, kind of a lose-lose situation

      Women are the only demographic that isn't "allowed " an exclusive space. Which says that we NEED it, its vital to women's mental. Physical and Spiritual Health. Under patriarchal toxicity and enduring a male centric dominant culture informs our need for exclusive and intentional spaces. Unfortunately, voicing this need meets the response of "stfu TERF!"-- We as women have the right to gatekeep our own spaces. Lesbian spaces aren't queer free for all's either, exclusive spaces are our right.

      regardless women should have the right to gather without men (no matter how such men may identify)
      i know many “transwomen” say that they need to be allowed in women’s spaces since they at risk of violence if they go in men’s ones. it’s not women’s responsibility to give up our spaces cause men cant treat each other with civility

    If that place willingly included trans women with open arms and wasn’t so transphobic, it really could’ve been a truly amazing and more importantly necessary thing for women of all kinds. Women, even trans women, deserve places like this that allow them to truly feel 100% safe for maybe the first time in their lives, and never have to worry about or answer to any man while visiting. But instead, it was TERFtopia. That fucking sucks. 😞

      why they had to "include" and "with open arms" males in a female fest is beyond understanding, you see it's this attitude that makes you unwanted, create your own spaces instead of invading where you don't belong, you have destroyed female sports, robbed females of awards and scholarships to just get your rocks off like
