I’m excited to watch these! I’ve been looking for some Black Queer films since watching Cheryl Dunye’s The Watermelon Women ! Which I also suggest watching to anyone interested!

Thank you for curating this list! I’m used to seeing the same handful of Black queer films being recommended on lists like this and it was refreshing to see a list of films I haven’t heard of or seen yet.

Wow. What a great collection of films? I have never seen any of them and look forward to viewing. I recently viewed Isaac Julien’s 1991 film, Young Soul Rebels, which could be a part of this collection (plus, it has a great soundtrack!)

joshua, i LOVE “young soul rebels” (what a picture!) and considered adding it here but wanted to focus on the even more underseen films (if one could possibly measure that….). thank you, as always, for your care.
