This week we're diving into some tough but necessary conversations. Iowa just became the first state to strip gender identity from its civil rights law, and the Pentagon is actively targeting trans service members, forcing them out of the military. But in the face of these attacks, we also have stories of resilience—like a major lawsuit challenging Trump's executive orders and my exciting new role as the newsletter coordinator for BLACKlines, keeping Black LGBTQ+ stories alive. Plus, we celebrate Black queer excellence at the Oscars and dive into a powerful queer women's history series. Let's get into it!

A majority of Americans were stressed before Election Day, and now post-election, emotions are still running high for many across the country. Experts say, Americans with varying political views are dealing with post political trauma in the wake of the election results, from pride and optimism to disappointment, frustration and even fear. Our series, “Aging While Black: Post Political Trauma” assembles a panel for thoughtful and open-ended questions to ask Black gay professional men about their experiences dealing with post-political trauma following the 2024 election and the presidency of Donald J. Trump. Our candid conversation aims to explore their emotional, social, and professional responses designed to foster open dialogue, promote reflection, and create a space for vulnerability and connection. Alvin and Bobby, know all too well the timely importance of presenting this discussion and proudly welcome our Black brothers' guests Dr. Art Fields, author “I Respect Difference”; Cory George, Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, author “Sit or Stand 2.0: Living Successfully”, Kevin Reynolds, Adjunct Professor at American University, and Shawn Nelson, Commissioner Elect, four extraordinary Black Gay men who understands the necessity of dealing with your emotional and mental state will be our best defense for what lies ahead in the United States of America.
Jai The Gentleman posted this reel about dating trans men and the part that got the most commentary was when I said “f*ck people not parts”. As much as I know this applies to dating people of trans experience, I think the rest of Black gay culture still can use the memo. This is how Jai The Gentleman learned about the fetishization of men in Black gay culture, and what the culture must do about it.

The narrative he pieces together from oral history, archival research and even gossip (a […]

In There's a Disco Ball Between Us: A Theory of Black Gay Life (Duke UP, 2022), Jafari S. Allen offers a sweeping and lively ethnographic and intellectual history of what he calls “Black gay habits of mind.” In conversational and lyrical language, Allen locates this sensibility as it emerged from radical Black lesbian activism and writing during the long 1980s. He traverses multiple temporalities and locations, drawing on research and fieldwork conducted across the globe, from Nairobi, London, and Paris to Toronto, Miami, and Trinidad and Tobago. In these locations and archives, Allen traces the genealogies of Black gay politics and cultures in the visual art, poetry, film, Black feminist theory, historiography, and activism of thinkers and artists such as Audre Lorde, Marsha P. Johnson, Essex Hemphill, Colin Robinson, Marlon Riggs, Pat Parker, and Joseph Beam. Throughout, Allen renarrates Black queer history while cultivating a Black gay method of thinking and writing. In so doing, he speaks to the urgent contemporary struggles for social justice while calling on Black studies to pursue scholarship, art, and policy derived from the lived experience and fantasies of Black people throughout the world. Brittney Edmonds is an Assistant Professor of Afro-American Studies at UW-Madison. I specialize in 20th and 21st century African American Literature and Culture with a special interest in Black Humor Studies. Read more about my work at brittneymichelleedmonds.com.

Black don't crack, except when it comes to cracking jokes. And Keith McGill does it for a living. McGill is a Louisville native and class clown who took it to a microphone for the first time when he was in his 20s. Since then he has used comedy to talk about a range of tough topics — some tougher than others, depending on the audience. Being Black, being gay, grieving his partner of over 30 years... He believes if you set it up right, you can use humor to talk about anything. In fact, sometimes humor is the only way to talk about what hurts us the most.

How does a gay man raised in a Southern Black church end up the Executive Director of Washington DC's LGBTQA synagogue, Bet Mishpachah? Growing up attending the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Josh Maxey always had a relationship with God and religion, but after hearing his pastor talking about how gay people are destined for hell, he started pulling away from Christianity. As a religious studies minor, many routes for exploring his spirituality were available. He found his connection to Judaism during a chance encounter with the legendary Temple Emanu-El in New York City, established in 1845, when a loving stranger invited him to sit and pray, and he found himself in tears, and at peace. Josh says that in Judaism, he found a home, where he could be 100% authentic, live his values, and follow his purpose, surrounded by diverse people and their diverse beliefs and ways of being Jewish in the world. We talk about the importance of diversifying leadership and the continual efforts needed to create a fair and equitable space, and the relationship between American Black and Jewish communities. Josh's story is more than an enlightening conversation; it is a testament to the beauty of diversity within the Jewish community and the power of authenticity in faith. Join us for a refreshing viewpoint on faith, race, and identity.GLOSSARY: Mishpachah: the Hebrew word for “family”.Siddur: the Hebrew word for prayerbook, derived from the root meaning “order”, as in, the order of the words and prayers in the service.Tikkun Olam: meaning “world repair,” is a concept that all human beings are responsible for one another and the world, and for repairing harm and damage through their actions, big or small.Hadassah: meaning “myrtle tree” in Hebrew, it is a relatively common Jewish girl's name and the Hebrew name of Queen Esther from the Purim story.Kvetch: Yiddish for “complain,” meaning both to complain, and what a person who complains is called. Halachically/halakha: Jewish law code based on the Talmud, which is the central text of Rabbic Judaism Hebrew Israelites: Commonly called “Black Jews” until the mid-1960s, the Hebrew Israelite movement gained a following in the late 1800s and comprises people of color, primarily African Americans, “who view the biblical Israelites as their historic ancestors.” Some may not necessarily identify as Jews, and the larger group should not be confused with the “Radical Black Israelites” which the SPLC identifies as an antisemitic hate group. More:Temple Emanu-El is the first Reform Jewish synagogue in the United States and an architectural landmark in the Lower East Side. Bet Misphachah, founded in 1975, is DC's only LGBTQA synagogue. Join them for services on Fridays and the 2nd and 4th Saturdays.The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington is a community organization that provides support for the Jewish community through social action, impact grants and other connecting and educational activities.

I think that way, its an easier conversation that allows you to connect, learn more on a personal level and realize those differences you think are there, yeah, they really aren't. In our conversation with Adrian, we find out we weren't so bad after all...lol In our growth, accountability and honesty are huge, so I think it's easy for the Dropping Dymes crew to admit that we might not have been as open and receptive to the subject or the community as we should have been, wayyyy back when we were younger. Over time, we've grown, been educated on different levels, and want to continue to learn how we can be better in fostering our relationship with their community, so it becomes more of a seamless connection, and allows for just one big happy world! If there's anything you think we missed on, anything we should have touched on, please, don't hesitate to let us know. We're here to keep growing, right? As always, we appreciate you all letting us borrow some of your time, letting us into a little of your space and letting us just talk to and with you. Keep on telling a friend to tell a friend to come be our friend. If you haven't, go subscribe on Spotify and Apple Podcast too, especially if that's where you enjoy us, because I know all of you aren't into looking at our faces...lol Keep telling people to Subscribe, Share, Comment,

Jordan, Damon & Tony are curious – what can the current political system do to better protect Black Queer people? We are excited to welcome you back with a brief update on our time off between seasons. We then launch into a fun gay reimagining of the government for and by Black people. Our discussion is then centered around how the current political landscape is causing physical, mental, and emotional harm towards Black Queer people. This week we welcome Executive Director and Co-Founder of Campaign Zero, DeRay McKesson to our Surface Level Family. DeRay adds a point of view from an individual who has been doing the work as a former teacher and dedicated activist. We weave through topics related to gun violence, “Don't Say Gay” bills, and trans identity. He poignantly said during the episode that, “the culture wars are here”, and we discuss what we're going to do about it. We know a lot but we don't know it all, so join the conversation on social and let us know your thoughts.
