Ballroom Culture: the Language of Vogue | Ronald Murray | TEDxColumbus

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
- This is a small glimpse into the underground culture known as the House and Ballroom Scene. House and Ballroom culture has been instrumental in changing the lives of the participants/members and has been influencing mainstream pop culture since the early 80s. With reference from celebrities such as Madonna in her song Vogue, and even RuPaul's drag race has paid homage to this culture and community.
Ronald Murray, also known as Father Ron 'drama' Xclusive Lanvin and one of the curators of the House and ballroom culture in Ohio and throughout the Midwest and nationally, walks us through the long and fruitful history of the ballroom culture and the language of Vogue which was created within this community. This underground scene has existed for more than 40 years as an underground community/culture. The 1990s documentary "Paris is Burning" was the first glimpse in this community. While the culture has been mainly within the LGBTQ of
communities of color, it has recently regained mainstream acknowledgment as the focal point of the hit Ryan Murphy Show "POSE" on FX and on Viceland channel "My House."
Ronald G. Murray is a community leader who lives in Columbus, Ohio with over 15 years of training, education advocacy, counseling and social work experience beginning as a youth HIV/AIDS advocate consultant. Ronald is committed to educating the community about and advocating for the House and Ballroom community as a safe and worthy community to provide outreach, education, community support, and visibility within our local and national community.

I will never understand how a parent can so easily kick out their child for being themselves.
then you need to read more
I came out at 59, I lost my parents, spouse, and children. I think it's love, loving the image of the body more than the person. The parents that support their child and go through rejection and condemnation, that is unconditional love, that is loving like God loves.
They found a better family

When you said you were a social worker I almost cried. You’re one of the few genuine social workers I’ve listened to.
Sincerely.
Im not part of the lgbtq but I still felt inspired by this people. They know themselves and I'm proud of them.
Me too
I've been so depressed lately but this video genuinely interested me and made me feel something, real hope and joy, thank you so much for this talk!
This is exactly why I do it
wow
Ballroom culture is everything! It has shaped Queer culture today and influenced pop culture in so many ways, that we owe so much respect and admiration to the Houses and the individuals who are Ballroom culture. It brings me joy to see how Ballroom has been showcased in recent years, from Pose to Ballroom vogue legends going on tour with famous musicians and teaching them choreography. Ballroom is international. We have Ballroom houses here in Newcastle, England and I can’t wait until I get to be apart of it in some way. I can dream!
There is a fantastic documentary called " Love Is In The Legend" its online. Many years ago i got to see Willie Ninja vogue at a Barbara Tucker party and i'll cherish that memory forever.
This is one of my favorite Ted talks. The storytelling, the music and dancing, the analysis of their technique - amazing!
If I'd discovered this stuff as a confused kid instead of buying into toxic masculinity to compensate, and the injuries incurred from overdoing martial arts and the gym, I'd probably be a much healthier person these days than i am.
What an amazing show I'm so proud of how far the LGBT community has come from and how much the ballroom culture has helped us 😍😍
😀🥰😇
Reading up on the incredible Paris is Burning documentary brought me here. Really interesting, thank you for this.
Readers are Leaders
Ballroom is simply being free to be. Its more than just dancing. Look at the art of it. The family of it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯
Pose brought me here , I didn’t know ballroom scenes exists and I love it
Queer POC ted talks deserve way more views than they get! I share this widely 💖
Yes, indeed.
THANK YOU!!
My exact thoughts after watching and glancing at the views/likes!!! Totally sharing this with my HS dance students!!!!

2020/2021 it breaks my heart to see how family and people can kick a child out on the streets and not accept a child just because of something they desire in their hearts. It’s not a choice, it’s life, not a way of life but life. I’m so glad the world is changing but we still have a long way to go and I love this story I just heard. Thank You for explaining to those that simply don’t know 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Just AMAZING!!! The way you broke it down from beginning to end.....
I first Found this on the TED app, but only the audio was working and I couldn’t see the video. I am so glad I found it here on TH-cam. It was amazing and thanks so much for making it!
wow, so there is an application🤩
I’m so joyful to realize where one of my favorite expression of dance developed. Never realized it’s roots. Thank you for your introduction to this culture
Madonna went to the Ballroom, Jose of The House of Xtravaganza auditioned for her right there at the Ball, he and Luis also helped Choreographed the dance for the video, they both went on Tour with her and also the Vogue video came out in 1990, Paris Is Burning came out in 90 or 91.
What an amazing TED talk! So informative and delightful.
What a beautiful and informative presentation! Thank you, Ronald.
What a wonderful story. You bring a child into the world..you are given no guarantees , only the innocence of a baby that need your unconditional love.
House and ballroom is what family is all about. Loving guidance form productive people that call you family.
This was awesome but I also wished they showed the old way of voguing as well from Willie Ninja
Blacqlove same I’m trying to study it
Old way all the way. 👏❤ I want to learn the old way first before the other styles.
Old Way, the only way...
Lol...Yeeees!
What a testimony, he’s amazing.
This is an iconic class given by Mr Murray here. Legendary even. Get the word out.
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing and helping us understand your community.
Beautiful Ted Talk! MUCH NEEDED!! Preserve the history!
This is fantastic Ted Talk. They are explaining how community really shows up to take care of each other when biological family has pretty much disowned you.
Ballrooms and houses culture is SO beautiful and needed, and sadly I think in many countries like mine (which is in Latin America) they haven't existed or at least have been very unusual...
Thank you for all you've done Ronald. ❤️🌈
😇
little do yk there are a lot of scenes in latin america so maybe one day ull get one near u 😁😌
Watch Paris is burning, and POSE. It’s Paris is burning that broke the barrier.
💯💯💯...exactly.
Thank you for educating me on this subculture❤. The dancers' movements were poety in motion
Enjoyed every moment of this!! Thank you for the lesson.
There is nothing wrong with Angel but a colossal failure of the people who gave him birth because they aren’t parents.
awesome! thankyou for this presentation Ronald. Love the elegant dancers
Uhhhh the look she gave that gurl, when she messed up the freeze... ! She was like: GURRRRRL!!!!!! @11:10 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am deeply moved.
All I can say is it is every single one of any of the parents loss, these amazing young people didn't deserve thier parents? No, the parents did not ever deserve them.
I looooove this! Finally vogue on Ted! 👏👏👏
I am so glad to see this and I’m looking forward to seeing more acceptance from everyone
🥰

What a great ted talk!! Thanks to Matt Baume who sent me here :)
Very interesting and incredibly informative! The mention of ballroom culture in a glowing review of Leikeli47 's album Acrylic brought me here. :-)
My favourite album find of 2019, lucky to see her at Birmingham pride last year too.
Wow! thank you for sharing
Great speech and great dancers!!
Utterly gorgeous-all power to these people! 💛❤️💜💚
So often conversations about queerness revolve around the horrors and discrimination. That is obviously important to discuss, but it is really cool to see the art forms and accomplishments of queerness alongside it
wow. Nice man
I learned something today
In Baltimore, Odells was our ballroom show on Monday nights.
You know if you belong.
I remembered Odell's! LOVED IT !
We dont have a ball room scene in baltimore anymore ....i wish i could have went to odells
and Bunns on Thursdays, and the Paradox on Saturdays. Great times
i loved this
thank you
How has this only got 50k views.......!
Great way to state history of ball room
Magnifique!!! 💜💖🔥💥
That's why everyone should watch the FX series POSE which will revive the exact things he said
Love this
Been seeing so many of these moves, never knew this is their origin❤️
Came to learn from "Pose"!!!!
Ummm, Lamont, imma need those boots so I can duck walk like that 💃
I'm very curious to know how many voguers in the ballroom scene are professional dancers. I get the impression that a lot of them do it for fun, but the level of artistic / athletic / gymnastic prowess of even many beginning voguers is just Olympic! I'd be paralyzed if I tried 90 percent of those moves myself. ;-)
I love this
Bravo 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
well done
I wish I had walked "Realness" when they asked me but I was too busy being in love with hip-hop to even consider it
Live and let live. Thank you.
Can't believe I heard of House Music long before I knew what it meant
When you come for the ted talk but stay for the dance show.
This was great but wished there were trans sisters at TED, there would be no vogue without them
This video is amazing and deserves so many more views
I LOve THIS
POSE brought me here
The story reminds me of the show ‘pose’
We thank all of the present and past ballroom s and houses for bringing us all this wonderful art form🏳️🌈
😭😭❤️❤️
Is there more information about these dancers?
