is a place for queerness to thrive. We all have different identities, backgrounds, ethnicities, experiences, outfits. Queerness and gender are a vast spectrum, but we’re all stars in the same universe. Interconnected.
The American Queer is a documentary series dedicated to exploring and celebrating a rich spectrum of queer artists across the United States. At a time when the rights and very existence of queer and trans people are under threat, our series stands as a vibrant testament to joy, resilience, and creativity.
Our mission is to illuminate the diverse stories within the queer community, showcasing how our unique backgrounds, struggles, and triumphs converge to form a kaleidoscope of life lived authentically. How art-making can be a form of self healing and self acceptance.
We believe in the power of representation and the importance of including a broad range of voices, especially those of trans, non-binary, and queer people of color. Our series is an intentional act of resistance, celebrating queer joy as a radical response to a climate of discrimination and exclusion.
By sharing these stories we aim to inspire a younger generation of queer individuals to see the possibilities of art-making and living openly. In these challenging times, your support and participation are crucial. Together, we can ensure that every story is heard, every joy is amplified, and every life is validated.
Join us in this journey of discovery and affirmation, as we celebrate the multiplicity of queer existence and fight for a future where everyone can live with pride.
