Instead of focusing on bad news, why don’t we share some good YouTube channels made by LBGTQ+ creators to celebrate them?
Let’s share what you watch and why! I will start:
Alexis and Lilian https://www.youtube.com/@AlexisLilian/videos
A channel by lesbian couple Alexis and Lilian. Very cool. Offers lots of useful advice.
I just realized how queer my favorites are. Mostly long form essayists, but entertainers. I’m too tired now to offer good descriptions, but they are worth it.
Jessica Kellgren-Fozard (https://www.youtube.com/@jessicaoutofthecloset) My number one feel good channel. LGBTQ+, vintage fashion, disabilities, media analysis, historical profiles, parenting tips. A lot.
Jessie Gender (https://www.youtube.com/c/lostrekkie) Nerd content, trans content, good content with kindness and nuance. Just don’t threaten her well being.
Rowan Ellis (https://www.youtube.com/@HeyRowanEllis) Media analysis focused on queer topics.
Shanspeare (https://www.youtube.com/@Shanspeare) Discussions around pop culture while being fabulous.
verilybitchie (https://www.youtube.com/@verilybitchie) Smart, funny, varied topics.
Tara Mooknee (https://www.youtube.com/@TaraMooknee) The only youtube channel written and produced by a cow.
talistheintrovert (https://www.youtube.com/@talistheintrovert) “If you like listening to people complain about things, then boy am I the channel for you!”
Princess Weekes (https://www.youtube.com/@Princess_Weekes) “Talking about pop culture, race, feminism, and other social issues with a lot of nuance and profanity.”
Khadija Mbowe (https://www.youtube.com/@KhadijaMbowe) “Cool, fun, Queer Aunty”- Their branding, “Big sister or friend their head.”- Their comment section, “A sentient garbage disposal.”- Their own words
Philosophy Tube (https://www.youtube.com/@PhilosophyTube) There’s a lot to learn, even if I personally ignore the specifics.
Maggie Mae Fish (https://www.youtube.com/@MaggieMaeFish) Perfect balance between funny and informative and unhinged. Movies from an interesting point of view.
Mia Mulder (https://www.youtube.com/@MiaMulder) Don’t care for philosophy? Some history for you.
I watched Tara Mooknee’s video before and its really funny!
