Damn when she said no fems no fats no black i almost stood up screaming!! Gurl you better TESTIFY!!!!!
One of the best speeches I have ever heard about the lgbtq community. Yes, we should be more kind to one another.
OMG! Every word coming out of Alaska's mouth is so real... let's face it. I love everything about this. I wish more people would hear this, specially the LGBTQIA+
Alaska's speech should be played on speakers in every gay bar and nightclub!!! this shit is real....and i hate it!!!
True! I'm sorry I hate it too.... I hate the reality
"Where is the compassion?"
I agree, I loved this speech ❤
You can tell that every word of that came from a real place, and it broke my heart. Preach, Alaska. There’s so much fucking hate going around that we forget that we’re all a part of this community because we come from the same place. Wishing more people would see this, it’s beautiful.
Alaska's speech was a surprise moment that gave me the feels! Its a shame that speech is only being seen here on TH-cam as it is a message that should be delivered in every gay bar, book store, coffee shop and bath house in the country. Just like the last sentence in the video says, we face many challanges in the LGBTQ community... loving yourself and each other should NOT be one of them. And I would go further and say that holding each other up and appreciating the divirsity among us should also NOT be a challange.
This is what we need. Compassion. It’s not a new idea. We just need to be brave enough to call people out on their bullshit. And to stand up for each other.
Wow! I am sitting here, weeping. Such a powerful show and such an amazing speech. As a gay man in his 50s who had a love affair with meth for 20 years this really hits so close to home.
these issues we face in the lgbtq community, is real, very real and it saddens me that this is the reality.. i hope for change in this community truly heartbreaking. :(((
I love this speech by Alaska, i wish more members of the lgbtq community understood the point of this video. All the points she named are very real and sadly a large part of this community.
she speaks great! i loved it to ... sux ppl said in vid 1 n 2 that it was steriotyped .. but the truth is. our community stereo types it self.... i have seen that scene to much . and i got the message crystal clear. i just wish that it didnt take people like alaska who i LOVVE to be the ones who catch ours ears and makes us listen , any member of this community should b able to get threw to others....
i live !!!!
i wish there were more of thesse
Alaska's message was AWESOME
God, Alaska is so fucking FIERCE! I absolutely love her!
I was under the impression that Jack Merridew was the main character of this short series. But now I see it was to send a message.
i love this. alaska isn't acting, she's preaching truth.
That's a man you little liberal
Absolutely ❤
Why aren't more people watching this?!! Very well done........
Preach it to the T! Final 3rd episode simple less stellar no music.. But just words that hit the heart.
Alaska is always my fav Drag Superstar.
I love this speech, depression is hard being a blk gay men in a religious family is hard, and dealing with stigma in the gay community all I hear is I’m to fat to blk not rich enough or I’m just ugly but I can say I was blessed with grandmother and mother who showed me so much love that I stand strong,
I absolutely adore alaska, she is very well spoken, educated and compassionate ❤️❤️
I Finally Feel 30 years old Thank You Impulse For Opening Up My Eyes
Great speech Alaska! Too many of our gay family falls into drug abuse as if it was no big deal.
I feel so glad to hear this beautiful speech... change my mind... stop to hate each other, star to support...
This is incredibly well done!
we need more videos like this !!! that was perfect
I live for that speech ! Well done Alaska!!!
loved it!!! So true!!!
Tbh I thought episodes 1 & 2 were jokes, but damn episode 3 got deep. Was not expecting that.
same here
Thank you Alaska.
That's so true. We should be lifting each other up ❤ lovr that message/speech
Alaska's drag race please now
After Ru's day will come
Omg! So good!
Excellent Series! It’s like a drama piece
Wow, this was incredibly powerful!
how you amaze me ALASKA - i love you so much although you make me cry like a child - I LOVE YOU!
I'm sorry once people stop watching this video things will go back to normal
Even if we change, the system changes us back:(
the grindr environment
tbh most of us are and our community is fucked up:(
They don't have to though. Don't let them go back to normal. Don't accept defeat so easily! Use your voice to reach those around you! Be the change you want to see.
Amen Alaska! very well said and truly touching.
Pretty powerful stuff... kudos
Love it
The final act of poignant, powerful Trojan Horse of a three part story. Refreshing to see a call to bring our community back to the care we once expressed for each other only 25 years ago.
Si impressed by Alaska’s speech ! I love and respect her even more than I already did ! ❤️
this hits me so hard.. I can relate to the speech so much
Alaska is beautiful
this made me love alaska even more
Alaska, I love you! 💕💕💕💕💕
I loved that speech so much ❤ I completely agree with what she said, she also looks absolutely amazing ❤
Thankful 🙏 💯 💎
This was perfect and really needs to be said and addresses out loud. I hope this reaches many many people who need to hear it. And I’m glad that it’s coming from such a beautiful Queen inside and out. Maybe that will make it a little more palatable for our community as well as every other. XX
Amen, and Amen again.
Why am I crying so fucking hard 😩😩😩
True words ❤️
I absolutely love this!!! It is sooooo important
Damn Alaska just rekt the entire community down and built it all back up #QUEEN
WOW !!! This was over 2 years ago and people still don’t get the message wow !!! I love the message and I have a new found respect for Alaska
Alaska Thunderfuck you are a real legend.
"Brian was one of my best friends" said the pudding brain that murdered him.
Funny thing is the moment he started defending his behavior he was quickly shut down. I love that part.
Agree. Totally. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
I'm glad Alaska brought up racism in the gay community because I literally spotted someone in that audience who said the n word when I was riding in a car with him years ago. An no he was not rapping, he said it in a derogatory sense.
Who?
Not just racist, but agist, classist, narcisst - totally sums up to 1 word - FASCIST!
Hits pretty hard isn't it?
Alaska, oh god she isn't acting, she always makes me laught when she start speaking but in this video she made me cry
Amazing, awakening and loving message. Thanks for this video!
Woww this is Good !!!!
I am tearing rn.
Loved this!
This was emotional. One more thing I would add to Alaska's "No fats, no Blacks, No Femmes" is "no Rice/Asian". As an gay Asian man, I never felt like I had a place in the gay community anywhere in America. I founded GSA at my school, I fought for other students so that they would have a safe space. Then I was actively involved in the gay rights movement in the state that is often called the Buckle of the Bible Belt. During this whole time, I never felt belong and the community never treated me like I did. A community that is marginalized yet continue to shun others who did not fit in their standard of beauty and expectation. A community that advocate for love and embrace differences is somehow prejudice toward Asian men as if they aren't good enough. The gay community, we got a lot of issues, and we have an issue with loving ourselves and out fellow brothers and sisters. I hope to see that we do all that was preached in this video and more.
Agreed, it’s getting better but there’s more that can be done
Applause !!!
GOD I HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR YEARS.
Same here
Thank you Alaska for the fun -but above all - for the Love ❤❤❤
im like crying
Yasssssss ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I watched this when it came out. (I was younger then and didn’t completely understand what was going on) I came back to rewatch this and god it changed me.
same fucking here
This hurts my heart
I am so impressed.
Preach Alaska!!!!!!
still relevant.
A great film, powerful ending!!!
Oh she said it!
Some truth T in this episode
Alaska💜
My best friend past away and i Will never forget 😭😭😭
I am sorry, too. From Bangkok, Thailand.
we come in Peace
Bravo!!
Much love and support from this ally. Preach, Alaska.
❤️
I’m sorry everything she said is true 😔
fuck that's amazing
Love thy neighbor. That’s what religion has FAILED to do to the LGBT community. Let’s not repeat the sins of religion against ourselves.
ALASKA IS BRILLIANT
I came here to get entertained and instead I was educated!
🥺🥺
Londons the same, the scene burns lads up. New comers last between 5 to 10 years, before they go home burnt out husks, or are dead. some burn out even faster.
Im so glad i was right from the previous epsiode. People only see the surface of content. They dont critically think about where the show or movie is leading to.
100% Gay
Always thought Alaska`s win on All Stars 2 was rigged, but now I do see her as a winner.
❤❤❤
He Died because his "Friends" Left him there and didn't even roll him onto his side ! Might have lived if they had rolled him onto his side ! Nobody cared enough to look after him .They left him to die !
Exactly ❤
We must stick together.
Wardrobe, makeup, sets, props...I mean, it’s all perfect! But the writing paled by comparison! IE, “...you don’t know who’s behind the phone YOU’RETEXTING TO.”
The fuck? If you’re texting and don’t know who you’re texting....Honey, plz.
If the script matched quality with the rest of the AMAZING elements...this series could’ve won a Screamy...or Grabby...or Tooby...wtvr theyre called!! But nah-just had to have the fatal flaw in the series!! #BradHammer & #JustinHonard ...bitches, we lookin at YOU!
If you dont get that "you don't know who your texting to" was ment the personlalitie behind a profile pic. A personality which might have problems. And if you dont get the wake up call to the community not judging each other by labels. A community that has many problems then sorry bye. You might need to rewatch and especially listen.
thank you for explaining :)
And those guys who writes those ugly likes are the most shallow, depressing and the ones who are the most alone and think they are ok but in the end they will have no1 when they no longer young and hot... because youth and beauty are only temporary... I rather be ugly on the outside and beautiful inside than beautiful on the outside but rotten ugly inside... I love all boys all guys from all races because color or race doesn't matter when it comes to love and sex, we are all the same inside, flesh and bones and we will all die the same but what's waiting on the other side well that's a different story and who knows but remember karma is a bitch
Thunder feel the Thunder funeral not everybody should get together and make some scary with the song Thunder we need to see more stuff Halloween is ready to hear what you're going to do we would like to see it when you finish okay
Who is Brian?
It's a shame the director ruined such a beautiful scene. Alaska was giving a hearted performance and the camera should be on her the whole time. The audience shots just look ridiculous in the context and make the whole speech lose its sparkle.
I was just thinking I wished they showed more of the audience. I guess the way they did it was right then LOL
This is a WORD! Cis gay men take notes!!!
Making it a "cis straight male" thing is rather divisive and inaccurate. The lack of compassion they talk about also exist between trans person or between lesbians. Some folks always chose an enemy, when it's not straight people not helping us it's gonna be a specific part of the community that gonna be the enemy like if one bit was flawed and not the rest.
Sound like you didn't take notes at all
