      I believe it was in gay,drag culture that older men traditionally used spoken history to teach younger people coming up and out.

    I can honestly say I could sit there and hear about the history and influences of the Club Kids all day. It's such a fascinating era and had such rich, colorful characters.

      @sandrsofias 9 років тому +39

      micmic11mn yes. I think they added Milk to get someone and to fill the panel, but she doesn't seem to have the knowledge and experience the others did. Vivacius (and Ornacia) would have been an interesting mix.

    • @kevinwilliam1673
      @kevinwilliam1673 9 років тому +45

      Lorem Ipsum You're correct, Milk doesn't have the same level of knowledge that the others have on this particular panel. Nor should she, she is half their age. However, she is someone who reflects the same openness and free spirited mindset, along with a sense of cooky and rebellious artistry that resembles those "club kids" that have come before her. That is why she was selected for this particular panel.

    • @micmic11mn
      @micmic11mn 9 років тому +10

      @kayleecromling7132 7 років тому +14

      i've always felt milk was more of a club kid anyway rather than a drag queen. she's fab either way and i love her aesthetic and creativity. and, yea, to be fair she is much younger than james and a fair bit younger than the boulet bros. part of her problem is that she knows without knowing that she knows. it would take her no time at all to do a little background research to really round her out and bring her knowledge to the surface.

      I instantly switched videos and did not regret it. All baby queens need to see it. No just for the drag but for when the queens talk about how being gay affected their family life, being in the draft, etc. One can learn so much from older queens. And realize how much privilege we have now compared to what they went through 40, 50 years ago

    Agh, I remember James St. James from when I worked at Limelight way back in the day when I was way too young to be there. Vivacious should have been on this panel for sure. Milk is fabulous, but too young to remember anything they are talking about lol.

  • @davidhopper1663
    @davidhopper1663 9 років тому +13

    The documentary they refer to in the beginning of the discussion "The Queen" (1968) is on UA-cam. It really is a wonderful piece of our history. Truly remarkable.

  • @AleciaFluffyPresents
    @AleciaFluffyPresents 9 років тому +31

    Poor Milk... She was just there looking at this panel of old-school-drag scholars being like "Ah. There's a joke here. There, I said it".
    But she did through out a good discussion topic about how nothing is new... which quickly turned to the rest of the panel educating the children (me included) in everything that's old that we think is new.

    • @jhubeJELLO
      @jhubeJELLO 8 років тому +9

      +Alecia Fluffy Presents - I thought it was great she was there because she's meant to be that other perspective to the club scene because she is from the newer generation. I wished she asked more questions

    Great conference (too bad it was edited and so short) and James is incredibly charismatic - you can put him in a room full of freaks and queens, my eyes (and ears) will constantly go to him. Such a presence, such a storyteller, such a captivating man.
    Thank you for this video, for educating us and broaching so many topics.

    If you want to hear more of that old queen accent from New York, go look up Match Game 73-79 and listen to Charles Nelson Reilly on there who was a gay man, a broadway actor, who was very "out" for the time when Match Game was on the air. But he's so hilarious and now I know that he is speaking in that old accent. I think it's so great.

  • @fuckyou1458
    @fuckyou1458 9 років тому +47

    Nothing quite like history from the horses mouth! Loved this!
    I would love it if ***** did a series called 'Herstory' or something where it literally is videos letting us younger LGBT know our history of what came before us, Icons/Movements/Influential people/Moments what changed things forever etc etc... The internet is wonderful for finding stuff and I've came across a few good books- but I feel personally the 'meaty' content really isn't there, unless something was really commercialized it seems to have fallen under the radar. It really would be a shame for all this to just be lost in the past.

    • @shannonfrattura2029
