Really enjoyed learning about NY queer culture by watching Paris is Burning so thought I'd check out Mississippi Burning to see how marginalised communities express themselves in the South... oh

That was set in the 60s. Mississippi isn't nearly that bad. It's bad, but it ain't Mississippi Burning bad.

Oh yeah, sorry that was a bad joke. Those films couldn't be more different!

Hey! You got me looking at Paris is Burning!

Phew thought we'd have to settle our dispute by vogue-ing!

“Paris Is Burning” is such a fantastic film.
