I just want to recommend some classic (old) queer films that are sadly under-recognized (and should be widely known). To remind you that queer films haven't just been around since the 2010s, or 2000s, but have been around for a long time.
Starting with this: THE BOY AND THE WIND (Carlos Hugo Christensen, Brazil, 1967)

In 2000, a rising Nigerian rapper decided to stop dodging the question about her sexuality.
According to P.M. News, Weird MC openly said she was a lesbian. In an interview with a London-based magazine, she explained that she had never had relationships with men and wasn’t interested in a traditional family setup, though she hoped to adopt children in the future.
She said her decision to speak up was deliberate. As her profile grew, she knew the question would keep coming, and she didn’t want to keep “not keeping it real.” Appearing on a Channel 5 documentary about being Black, African, and gay gave her the moment to say it plainly, even though she expected backlash.
Weird MC also noted that her family in Nigeria was aware, and she stood firm in owning her identity.

There’s a complete media blackout in Japan. No major newspaper has covered the fact that over 10K ppl came out to protest the Japanese PM’s support for ZioAmerika’s war on Iran. Instead China’s Xinhua News, which has 11 million subscribers, covered the protests meticulously.

More than 10,000 Japanese people gathered in Tokyo Thursday night to protest against Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's dangerous policy agenda, including attempts to revise the country's pacifist Constitution and deployment of long-range missiles. #GLOBALink

🇯🇵🇺🇸 Huge protests in Japan. After Takaichi's disgraceful visit. After Trump humiliated her. In the Oval Office.
The people are angry. The streets are full. The government is exposed.
Takaichi flew 6,000 miles to be mocked about Pearl Harbor. She stayed for dinner. She signed the deals.
Now Japan is rising. Not behind her. Against her.
The protests are huge. The silence is broken. The shame is public.
Trump insulted Japan. Takaichi smiled. The people will not forget.

"In front of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Hong Kong MP Dominic Lee made a shocking statement: “The West talks about human rights, but lets Israel get away with committing genocide.” “The blood of Palestinians and Iranians is on their hands.” “What moral credentials does America have? A country ruled by Epstein’s followers!”
