Lee is perhaps the first black heterosexual director/writer to portray black gay men without parody. These two characters were written as multi-dimensional and self-confident men who just happened to be gay.<br /><br /><u><strong>Special Mention:</strong></u> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Boys-Band-Kenneth-Nelson/dp/B000VTJRW2/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1200555250&sr=1-1"><em><strong>The Boys In The Band</strong></em></a> is the first gay mainstream film for a general audience to include a black gay character. The <em>Band</em> is based on the play by Mart Crowley, a white gay playwright. </strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 180%;"><strong>The film's lone black character set the framework for how gay men of African descent continue to be portrayed in mainstream gay film largely today. That is, continue to desire, prefer, and love white gay men almost exclusively. </strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 180%;"><strong>Outside the sexual and romantic interest, the most often lone black character occupies the role of comdian. He is typically a comic stereotype who is loudmouth and sassy.</strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 180%;"><strong>With some irony because of artistic and perhaps sexual temperament, a number of gay screenwriters and directors of African descent continue to solidify stereotypical portrayals of African Diaspora men as incapable of finding one another sexually, intellectually, and spiritually viable as a partners. </strong></span><br /><br /><br /><strong>Special Mention #2:</strong> <strong><a href="http://www.fencesitterfilms.com/strangefruit.html">Strange Fruit by</a> </strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0771362/"><strong>Kyle Schickner</strong></a> is a half black cast film by a white director. The reason the film is being mentioned here is because Schickner had difficulty with the distributors who took issue with the black on black story not involving a white romantic co-lead. Though commendable, Schickner does not entirely avoid white gay gaze.<br /><strong>Special Mention#3:</strong> <a href="http://store.hbo.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2965301&cp=.1885652">The Wire.</a> HBO (Home Box Office) made television (or cable television) history by presenting the first openly gay black male character who actually loved and desired other black men, the last season or two being a disappointing exception. The character <a href="http://www.hbo.com/thewire/cast/characters/omar.shtml">Omar Little</a> also challenged the stereotype over who is and isn't gay at various social-economic levels of black general culture. As written, Omar was drug dealing Robin Hood with a conscious. <br /><strong>Special Mention#4</strong>: <a href="http://www.allurbanmedia.com/together-brothers.html"><strong>Together Brothers (1974).</strong> </a><strong>Together Brothers</strong> came into being and was part of genre commonly referred to as "blaxploitation cinema." Stereotyped as "bad guys," the film features two offbeat, eccentric gay characters who are "married." One of the two men is a murderer of a good Afro American cop. His partner adorns the wardrobe of a woman and pushes a stroller with dolls supposedly representing and indicating their wish for children--a family. The home life of the gay couple attempts to imitate traditional heterosexual life. Though offbeat and offensive by today's political correct standards, <strong>Together Brothers</strong> is the first film of an era to show brothers loving brothers!<br /><br /><strong>Note: Except for <em>Rag Tag, Woubi Cheri and Dakan</em>, all films listed here are by gay men of African descent. The Bayard Rustin documentary was executive produced by Afro American Sam Pollard. Some of these films have yet to be released on DVD. Others may never be released because of their black male on black male gay storyline. In the case of <em>Looking for Langston</em> distributed by Strand Releasing, DVD casing and the inclusion of a short film playing to prurient fetishistic interest marred the overall integrity of the film on the region 1 DVD.</strong><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/197115357748047420-5247226898209824556?l=brotherworks-thegayafricandiaspora.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BronzeBuckaroonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197115357748047420.post-64081446031957388762007-04-25T13:25:00.000-07:002012-01-02T13:28:11.084-08:00Theater<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_s_FQyBVTqR4/R_fNC7VfnUI/AAAAAAAAD5I/K0TNsl1uKZ4/s1600-h/images_nypl_orgCA0LRGYO.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5185838946111692098" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_s_FQyBVTqR4/R_fNC7VfnUI/AAAAAAAAD5I/K0TNsl1uKZ4/s400/images_nypl_orgCA0LRGYO.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" /></a><br />Scott O'Hara<br /><a href="http://wanderingcaravan-bronzebuckaroo.blogspot.com/2007/07/robert-oharas-insurrection.html">Insurrection: Holding History</a><br /><br />Donald Jolly<br /><a href="http://www.jollydrama.com/">bonded</a><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/1nTjbZ68REc?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br /><br />David Rousseve<br /><a href="http://wanderingcaravan-bronzebuckaroo.blogspot.com/2007/03/david-rousseve.html">dancer and choreographer</a><br /><br />Alan Sharpe<br /><a href="http://wanderingcaravan-bronzebuckaroo.blogspot.com/2007/08/alan-sharpe-playwright-and-director.html">Family Business & Auld Lang Syne</a><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/ACTDC">Clips of these works and others at YouTube</a><br /><br /><br /><br />Dyron Holmes<br /><a href="http://bmx-ny.blogspot.com/2009/10/play-within-play-within-ritual.html">A Communion with Kings</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/197115357748047420-6408144603195738876?l=brotherworks-thegayafricandiaspora.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BronzeBuckaroonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197115357748047420.post-83537434118811940112007-04-25T12:29:00.000-07:002010-10-13T09:48:11.434-07:00Compilations & Short Story Writers<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_s_FQyBVTqR4/TDTVRfc6wRI/AAAAAAAAHB4/bM61AILNpFY/s1600/bb+(3).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" rw="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_s_FQyBVTqR4/TDTVRfc6wRI/AAAAAAAAHB4/bM61AILNpFY/s400/bb+(3).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Visible-Lives-Stories-Tribute-Harris/dp/0758255756/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1278530565&sr=1-1">Visible Lives: Three Stories in Tribute To E.
