@@KitchenWitchery hell no! Although it would be okay to briefly mention homosexuality in sex ed to 8th graders, an extensive lecture on homosexuality is to be made by the children's parents (if the parents even wish to do so), not by a school.
@@DCBfanboy They should, many children don't get taught about homosexuality - in sex-ed and in history - because so many families don't talk about it and many schools are scared of teaching children about homosexuality in case of angry parents, so we have to educate ourselves or, in some cases, we are blessed with teachers that teach us about LGBTQ+ history. The most I've ever gotten was a student discussion, brought up by my friends and I, about anti-gay rhetoric and propaganda in Nazi Germany, a short talk about Alan Turing, and a debate, brought up by my friends and I, about LGBTQ+ rights.
I wanted to do a project last year on gay marriage, but I wasn’t allowed because it was too much of a “mature topic.” I’m fairly young, but I don’t see how people getting married is mature. If it was on how strait people started getting married, I would have been able to use that topic for sure.
I remember learning about him in third fourth grade, it was really at the heart of when I started understanding more about what it means to be gay which would be essential a few years later when I was coming out
I was a child, then, I remember the Boston media talking more about the 'Twinkie Defense' in the trial than anything about Milk being gay, much less a civil rights figure. Stunning in retrospect.
I just watched the movie Milk before I knew this video was coming out and I cried- it was so wonderful yet heartbreaking. Also I’m glad to be a patron you’re doing a good job man
Imo protecting the children has always been a dogwhistle for any kind of reactionary defense of the bourgeois family and its associated values. For example, the satanic panic around daycare was a reaction against the breakdown of the family, specifically (partial) transfer of the responsibility of child rearing from the mother to wider society, using the excuse that the children were in danger of being corrupted
I'm sad you never posted the rest of this series! You did an excellent job of providing summaries of the key parts of the history. I'm using these videos for my college classroom. I'd love to see more on the AIDs epidemic, DADT, DOMA, and the legalization of gay marriage...
I just found your series and absolutely love it! I've recently joined the LGBTQIA+ community and have been trying to find historical content everywhere I can and this series has been so comprehensive as a lot of what I've found focused on gay men and left out other perspectives. I would love to know what sources you used!!
There’s a picture book in my school’s library kid’s section called “Pride: The Story of Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag.” I live in a souther state in a pretty conservative area but people (including children) regularly check it out and it just makes me happy and hopeful 😊😊
This was awesome! Do you think you could do an episode of "Are They Gay?" on Aziraphale and Crowley from the book and soon-to-be Amazon Series _Good Omens_ by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett? It's really great and I personally ship them HARD. Lots of moments of good ol' fashioned domestic husbands in denial.
I just binged this series only to see this last upload was 3 years ago. I loved watching it and it was very informative, do you think you'll ever continue it in the future?
It's not my call but why do those spreading hate seem to continue to do so even now but those who tried to make things more accessible are no longer with us.
I'll have to do a presentation in school and I was just at deciding wether I wanted to do one about Harvey Milk or Magnus Hirschfeld when I saw this video
Harvey Milk is a alum of the University at Albany and they have a building called the Harvey House in his honor where they host LGBT+ events and are now looking into gender-inclusive housing options.
A shout out to Elaine Nobel would have been warranted in this video. She won election as a Massachusetts State Senator as an openly lesbian candidate in 1974 - 3 years before Harvey Milk won his election as a city official.
I would love to see this series continued to talk about events in more recent times, especially up until gay marriage became more widely legalized throughout first world countries throughout the 2010s
I came across these videos randomly, searching for some spanish documentation about this issue since I am from Spain. I have to say, I new nothing about all these figures or your history, since the history we study here is more centered in Europe. Still, I don't remember studying spanish gay movements or icons, and I am sure we also have a lot (that's actually why I am researching about it), which I think is really dissapointing. The thing is, I founded these videos really informative, and very well edited. It increased a lot my interest in my own research, and I have to say that I almost cried at some points. Somehow this issue makes me really emotional. Maybe it is because you use real photos and clips of these people and events you are talking about. I pause a lot of times the videos to read the signs that people hold in the pictures, and all I can think about is how these were real people, just like me, who had the necesity to write something like "Same treatment for gay people at hospitals". It just made me think a lot, of how I just believe it's something logical that my therapist, friends, professors, and parents accept my sexual orientation. Just like something normal, just like it is. This only makes me realice of how much it took for some people, (their jobs, their homes, even their lives...) to make possible that I can be myself in this moment. It makes me feel like I have a lot to pay back. I wished I could thank all this people who were before me and gave so much for the future. I am glad to live in that future. Anyway, keep doing your thing, I really enjoy these documentals! Thank you for sharing it with the comunity. Greetings!
We are presenting about heroes in school and a girl in my class got him. I don't think she will do him justice so I'll just be really annoyed the entire time because she won't be able to really tell his story
One of the first to gather LGBT People to fight for a common goal while also simultaneously using his white privilege for actual good.. many could learn from him.. I just hope he wasn't assassinated die to his sexuality but I have a feeling that was probably why 😥
You should totally do an "are they gay" video on Jay Gatsby and Nick Caraway from The Great Gatsby. The only thing gayer than that book is the 2013 movie adaptation.
Hi, I started watching the videos of your channel and I loved it a lot. I would like you to analyze this couple from the Vikings series, the tension between Athestlan and Ragnar, there is a lot of material. aaand sorry for the bad English 💦
Hey dude! You should totally do “are richie and eddie from it gay?” because there is shed tons of films and a book to get evidence from. pleaseeee. owo. :))
Our king has returned. Grace us with your insights oh wise one
They could legit use your videos in schools
As a college educator, I do.
They this once in my school
I am watching this now for a school project. We are going to write about resistance and people who we look up to.

@@dannyostby2925 thanks :-)
Your school is lucky my school is scared to talk about gays and we have homophobic teachers
Wish my school talked about stuff like that

I know, I've seen it too, sad but great movie
The fact that it was called "save our children" makes me cry.
Imo protecting the children has always been a dogwhistle for any kind of reactionary defense of the bourgeois family and its associated values. For example, the satanic panic around daycare was a reaction against the breakdown of the family, specifically (partial) transfer of the responsibility of child rearing from the mother to wider society, using the excuse that the children were in danger of being corrupted
More proper parole was "Let's destroy our children's lifes"
I did a presentation about Harvey Milk for school. He is a really important figure for the LGBTQ community.
I'm sad you never posted the rest of this series! You did an excellent job of providing summaries of the key parts of the history. I'm using these videos for my college classroom. I'd love to see more on the AIDs epidemic, DADT, DOMA, and the legalization of gay marriage...
"Save our children" ...until some of those children grow up and come out as gay themselves, then you can stop saving them
Your lgbt history series is so underrated!! thank you for your hard work i love these videos!
5:50 "adolf hitler anita bryant there's no difference" 💀💀💀 proof the gays invented twitter memes
BWHAHAHA

love that quote at the end of the video, my all time favourite quote... gives me chills every time!
I've really missed your LGBT history videos, welcome back dudes!💚 🏳️🌈
I need new episode 😭😭
I grew up in the Castro and was 21 when Harvey Milk talked at a college class I was taking. Just a few weeks later he was assinated by Dan White.
Hope this series continues!
I know this isn’t an Are They Gay episode but for your next one you should do Azariphale and Crowley from Good Omens! Love your videos

i love binge watching these videos and dying from the fumes of my nail polish

He faked his own death and became The Joker.
NormalSaline89 Say what are you sure about this and he was not a joker! He was helping for the community L.G.B.T .
@@dannyostby2925 THE joker, not A joker.
Please continue this series it's really good. I enjoy learning about things I didn't know, and honestly feel I should have known.

So happy to read this after season 2 :]
"The Times of Harvey Milk" is one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. If you're interested in Harvey, I'd highly recommend watching it.
5:42 the man behind him. I just can’t hold it XD
I just binged this series only to see this last upload was 3 years ago. I loved watching it and it was very informative, do you think you'll ever continue it in the future?

The quality in your videos has improved so much, I'm so proud of you guys.
Thanks for the memories. Remembering George and Harvey on the 45th Anniversary of May 21st.
@Alexander Avila, we are still waiting for episode 9, my dude.
Great video. Thank you for making these
4:04 did that actually happen???
Canadian yes...yes it did.
Can't wait for the next video!
I cannot understate the importance of the series you made.
Really missed your videos, welcome back :)
some kids from the harvey milk high school came to talk in my school and share their stories. such wonderful people
Love this! You do such a good job with this videos
Harvey Milk is a alum of the University at Albany and they have a building called the Harvey House in his honor where they host LGBT+ events and are now looking into gender-inclusive housing options.
You guys should do a video on Ineffable Husbands, Good Omens
you should do ineffible husbands from good omens for are they gay? its a very interesting situation...
We need to get to the part where we talk about "don't say gay"
Another great video. Well done.
My Pride Club has been using this series as conversations and we are SO SAD that this is the last one.
this video is amazing
in your next video can you do are they gay but with crowley and aziraphel from good omens?
Is there an episode 9? I can't find it.
A shout out to Elaine Nobel would have been warranted in this video. She won election as a Massachusetts State Senator as an openly lesbian candidate in 1974 - 3 years before Harvey Milk won his election as a city official.
great work! thanks for sharing. is there a follow up/episode 9?
Please, can you do "Are they gay?" about "Good Omens"?
I came here looking for those comments
@@dariemusic same here I knew there would be at least 2
I would love to see this series continued to talk about events in more recent times, especially up until gay marriage became more widely legalized throughout first world countries throughout the 2010s
If it's okay to give a suggestion, you should do a video on if Bakugo and Kirishima are gay from BNHA
Pls pls pls make an ep 9 😢
will you continue this series?
hii please make a video of the “ineffable Husbans” Crowley and Aziraphale, from good omens❤️❤️❤️❤️
