Thread Name: What is drag?
Subject: RE: What is drag?
Drag or?: They could have booked Dame Edna or Mrs. Doubtfire, but no. If the library elects Dr. Frank-N-Furter to read to the little ones instead, it's about the reader and not the reading. It's no secret. (RIP all)

How is it Harlem's Hamilton Lodge does not have a wiki these days? Tyler Perry has been accused of everything from black-face 'coonery buffoonery' to “misappropriation of drag culture.” Audiences hated all fourteen (14) movies... hmmmmm.

If not for Carol Cleveland, Monty Python would not have one ovary between the lot of them. Audiences thought they were hilarious… or just plain silly.

Benny Hill was doing drag & black face to the very end. Michael Jackson & Snoop Dog were big fans. Spike Lee.. not so much. Thames TV just kept taking it to the bank. Until they didn't.
