Podcasts about Tongues Untied

Filmmaker-writer-activist Marlon Riggs challenged popular — even progressive — culture when his video documentary depicting Black gay men with their “Tongues Untied” was banned by television stations across the U.S. (interviewed by Joey Flyer and Mike Alcolay). Lakhiyia means “home,” and Lakhiyia's work in revolutionary creativity offers an opportunity for listeners to bring out their own “sermons you wish you'd heard,” like “Duckwalk to Freedom” — and you can participate @lakhiyia on Instagram, HOMEplxce.com and thiswayout.org! (interviewed by Lucia Chappelle). And in NewsWrap: Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan declares 2025 “The Year of the Family” that doesn't include queers, more U.S.-based trans-national companies are obeying in advance to restrict or totally abandon workplace diversity programs, the Boards of Apple and Costco are bucking the anti-DEI trend, U.S. federal protections from bias in education based on sexual orientation or gender identity are struck down by a federal court in Kentucky, a bill that denies federal funding to schools that allow transgender students to compete in girls' and women's sports was passed by the U.S. House, and more international LGBTQ+ news reported this week by Sarah Montague and Marcos Najera (produced by Brian DeShazor).

"I love Denver as a city. Downtown is vibrant. But I'm always struck by a contrast when I fly out of Denver. Inside the city, it seems huge. But as you ascend and see the city against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, it starts to look tinier and tinier. All the great works of man diminish as the plane rises and you see the stunning majesty of God's mountains. Eventually, Denver is just a dot against the snow-capped peaks. So too, the great Tower of Babel might have looked mighty from the ground. But from heaven, it was less than a speck. The LORD had to come down, he had to stoop and squint just to see this little house of cards that was the great pride of man."#babel #Genesis #created #godcreatedtheworld #imageofgod #sermon #worship #firstpresbyterianbr #creator

Marlon Riggs was a groundbreaking filmmaker and activist who was born on February 3, 1957, in Fort Worth, Texas. As the child of civilian military employees, Riggs spent much of his childhood moving between Texas, Georgia, and West Germany. His experience of ostracism and name-calling as a biracial student at Hephzibah Junior High School in Georgia would have a profound impact on his life and work.Despite these challenges, Riggs excelled academically and athletically, becoming student body president at Ansbach American High School in Germany and graduating with honors in history from Harvard University in 1978. While at Harvard, Riggs realized that he was gay and sought to study the history and representation of homosexuality in American culture, petitioning the History Department for an independent study on the subject.Riggs began his career in film by working for a local television station in Texas before moving to Oakland, California, where he lived with his partner, Jack Vincent, for 15 years. It was in Oakland that Riggs developed his unique voice as a filmmaker, exploring issues of race, sexuality, and identity in groundbreaking documentaries such as "Ethnic Notions" (1986), "Tongues Untied" (1989), and "Black Is...Black Ain't" (1995).Riggs's work challenged traditional notions of documentary filmmaking, blending elements of poetry, music, and performance to create a powerful and emotionally resonant style. He was a vocal advocate for the representation and empowerment of marginalized communities, particularly Black gay men, and his films were instrumental in sparking conversations about race, sexuality, and representation in American culture.Tragically, Riggs died in 1994 at the age of 37 due to complications from AIDS. However, his legacy continues to inspire new generations of filmmakers and activists, and his work remains a vital part of the ongoing struggle for social justice and equality in the United States.Visual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

Today, I'm joined by Peabody Award-winning documentary filmmaker Vivian Kleiman. In her latest film, No Straight Lines: The Rise of Queer Comics, Vivian offers an intimate look at five pioneers of queer comics: Alison Bechdel, Rupert Kinnard, Howard Cruse, Jen Camper, and Mary Wings. The film also introduces a new generation of LGBTQ+ artists creating comics.  In our conversation, Vivian and I discuss how this project came about and her thought process behind certain cinematic touches. Vivian hits on some of the storytelling conflicts she went through while creating the film, including how to bring the viewers into the hearts and minds of the featured artists.  We also talk about what it means for a film like this to be picked up by PBS, given the current political climate.  Although she originally imagined No Straight Lines on a streaming platform like Netflix or HBO, it ultimately landed with Independent Lens, the independent documentary film branch of PBS. Vivian shares her approach to conforming with the FCC guidelines in a way that honors the content, but makes it available to a wide audience. You can watch No Straight Lines for free on PBS until April 23, 2023. If you're catching this episode after that date, it's still available for a small fee as a PBS member. Subscribe, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Castbox, or on your favorite podcast platform.Topics Covered:●      Why Vivian pursued this film, even though she doesn't identify as a ‘comic geek' ●      The importance of having queer stories represented in comics that are humorous, but also poignant●      How Vivian came up with a way to portray these artists and their work in a dynamic way ●      Celebrating Tongues Untied, a landmark film she produced with Marlon Riggs, entering into the in the National Film RegistryGuest Info:●      Vivian's Website ●      Vivian's Instagram ●      Vivian's LinkedIn ●      No Straight Lines Website Follow Me:●      My LinkedIn●      Art Heals All Wounds Website●      Art Heals All Wounds Instagram●      Art Heals All Wounds Twitter ●      Art Heals All Wounds Facebook●      Art Heals All Wounds Newsletter

In this episode, we essentially expand on our last one, with Witney giving his thoughts on SO PRETTY, the queer film from Jessie Jefferey Dunn Rovinelli which B reviewed last week, and further discussion of the films of Marlon Riggs, specifically his 1989 experimental documentary TONGUES UNTIED, his 1991 short ANTHEM, his 1991 PBS special COLOR ADJUSTMENT, and his final film from 1995 BLACK IS... BLACK AIN'T. We hope you enjoy, and thank you for your time.

The T.R.U.T.H. Project is a non-profit in Houston that works to educate and mobilize LGBTQ+ communities of color and their allies, with resources that promote mental, emotional and sexual health through the arts. The group's founder, Kevin Anderson, recently received a grant to produce a new digital documentary entitled, "Black Boy Symphony." Shot at the Deluxe Theatre in Houston's historic downtown 5th Ward, the film explores the lives of several gay men of color in the wake of a global pandemic. Brave Black men of varying ages reveal plenty about their authentic selves and the challenges they face, including racism, homophobia and marginalization. Host Eddie Robinson chats with Anderson, the film's creator, along with one of the men featured in the movie, John Nicklos, in a deeply moving discussion that's bold, provocative and unguarded.

AYA VS. THE BIG BOYS vs. MOMMY.... How Freudian! Closing out June's Pride programming double feature is Xavier Dolan's explosive, Tumblr-friendly MOMMY, one of the most discussed & adored films of the 2010s.... Until it suddenly became one of the decade's forgotten smash hits. Huh? How'd that happen? Young men making movies in their 20s, MOMMY's huge year amongst film bros and subsequent burial from the critical consciousness, and Dolan's bizarre choice to inject dystopian sci-fi in a domestic drama. Also, the duo answers once and for all: why is Xavier Dolan in IT: CHAPTER TWO?Your speakers are fine, Aya has just become an NPR Andy. Who is Aya hiding from? Is there someone in the house?

“Labels” (October 1, 1996) It’s the tale of two sitcom episodes. Depending on who you are, this is either an episode about Moesha meeting a gay teen who’s scared to come out, or it’s an episode about the dangers of gossip. Maybe it’s both. We are joined once again by Dr. Alfred L. Martin Jr. to discuss the importance of Moesha, why this episode of TV is utterly unique and who the cutest boy at Crenshaw High School is. (Spoiler: It’s Omar.) Listen to our previous outing with Alfred, about Roc’s gay wedding episode. Read more about Alfred’s work on his faculty page.

At the height of the AIDS crisis, Americans faced an uncertain future. Our healthcare system wasn’t prepared for a pandemic and Republicans in government were happy to watch people die. Sound familiar?During those heartbreaking times, artists made sense of the overwhelming despair by giving voice to the isolation people felt and they helped guide our communities forward through a world that had abandoned them.Today, performance artist Hereclitus Vernon joins us to talk about being one of the first people to come down with COVID-19 during the early days of the quarantine. Seven months later, Here is still dealing with the health consequences of the coronavirus.Listen as Here takes us on the journey for the fight of their life and how they used the power of art and meditation to help heal themselves.HERECLITUS HERE VERNON: https://linktr.ee/HereaclitusPlus- a look at the groundbreaking art made during the AIDS crisis of Diamanda Galás, Tim Miller, and Marlon Riggs whose film Tongues Untied almost got Republicans to shut down funding for Public Television.

We might be done with Pose for now, but we are not quite ready to leave the ballroom yet! This week’s episode features a deep dive into “The Queen,” a 1968 film directed by Frank Simon and “Paris is Burning,” directed by Jennie Livingston (1990). 05:40-31:02What we liked this week: Jocelyn attended her very first ballroom event - the Porcelain Ball - and it was EVERYTHING! Kristine celebrated the LONG OVERDUE discussion of reproductive rights at the Democrats’ primary debate. In particular, we loved Julián Castro’s reproductive justice-framed response. We salute Castro and the impressive work of his campaign manager, Maya Rupert.31:03-48:59As always, there were things that we did not like. For starters, stop vandalizing the Emmett Till Memorial! Next, we move on to a very important public announcement: IF YOU ARE NOT BLACK, THE N-WORD IS NOT FOR YOU. Kristine wraps up the segment with another repeat offender - Twitter. People on the spicy bird somehow managed to confuse Elijah Cummings and John Lewis. 49:00 - END:We move on from our personal rants to one of the greatest rants/reads of all time, courtesy of the LEGENDARY House Mother Crystal LeBeija in The Queen. In addition to LaBeija’s iconic reading skills, The Queen also highlights compelling explorations into the subjects’ views on military service and gender confirming surgery. As many know, LaBeija is much more than a masterful reader. She went on to start the system of house-sponsored balls that are the focus of Paris is Burning. We reflect on the insights from the film’s subjects, the idea of fantasy fulfillment through ballroom participation, and how vocabulary from the film has evolved (or in some respects lost its meaning) over time.

Rebecca Matalon, curatorial assistant at MOCA LA discusses the exhibit Tongues Untied: a look back at Art from the AIDS crisis.

Throughout the month of January, we’re revisiting some of our favorite conversations from the first 100 episodes of our show. Here's one of our favorites, a conversation with writer and activist Darnell Moore. Darnell co-authors the Huffington Post’s Tongues Untied blog, along with Wade Davis. He was most recently on the show when he co-organized the Black Lives Matter Freedom Ride to Ferguson. But today we’re listening to our very first conversation with Darnell, when he spoke to us about how early experiences in his life lead him to embrace social justice activism and to work against domestic violence. He spoke to us about how early experiences in his life lead him to embrace social justice activism and anti-domestic violence work. “I’ve been haunted, and in a very good way, by Audre Lorde’s notion of: What did you come here to do? What is your work?” Darnell says. “And when that work finds you, we have no choice but to respond.” Some of Darnell’s work focuses on black theology and black Christian thought—particularly as it relates to queer identities. So we also spent some time talking about what it means to be black, gay, and Christian. "I remember this evangelist saying she would rather her son be addicted to drugs than to be—she didn't use the word, she just did the broken-wrist type of gesture—than to be gay," he says. "I was mortified." But he reminds us that the black church is not a monolith, and there are also LGBTQ-affirming spaces within black Christianity. "I got to a point where I said if it means that my truth, the true person that I know myself to be, is something that will lead me to quote-unquote hell, then I would rather go to hell [...] for living in my truth than to go to heaven and live in a lie."

This week we spoke with local hip hop artist Jalin Roze, who was recently announced as part of the lineup for this year's Forecastle Festival. We talked to Jalin about hip hop's place in young people's lives, its importance as a genre, and how he became an artist himself. He also brought us a tune called "That's It," which we played a sample of in the studio, leading to a conversation about what the n word means in the context of hip hop culture. "At least when I personally use it - I don't use it to kind of glorify that word, I'm just using it to paint the picture. For instance in the song, when I was like, 'Where I'm from niggas slump from the pump all because a young nigga wanna beef.' And I was using those two words to symbolize the fact that there are a lot of killing, a lot of violence going on, for no reason really, because some people just like beef. Some people just like drama." Jalin also sat in on our Juicy Fruit segment this week, where we started out with a discussion of a new song and video by gay rapper Fly Young Red. The song is called "Throw That Boy P****" (note: we say the full title on the show) and it's been making the rounds online this week for its controversial portrayal of the feminine-performing gay men who dance in the video. Earlier this week, friends-to-the-show Darnell Moore and Wade Davis hosted a great discussion on their Tongues Untied blog about whether the video is revolutionary or, as Darnell said, "misogyny and sexism in queer drag." Jaison had concerns with what impression the video gives of LGBTQ people of color. "I don't like the fact that there are some straight people who know nothing about black gay men, who are gonna see this video and think that everybody's talking about boy p****," he said. "The first thing you're exposed to about black gay culture is gonna be this video? It's very reductive to me. Versus Big Freedia who's making good music about everything, that everybody can dance to, and happens to be gay. " We also spoke briefly about Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's Benzino having been shot by a nephew during his mother's funeral. And Jaison was interviewed for an article in Next Magazine called Getting Off Scot-Free, which looked at free versus paid online porn, whether or not people are willing to pay for porn, and how piracy affects the adult industry. Our thanks to Jalin Roze for stopping by the Strange Fruit Studios and sticking around to weigh in on Juicy Fruit. His latest release, Grand National Dreams is now available, and you can also keep up with him on twitter, at @JalinRoze. We can't wait to see him at Forecastle!
