Brit queer filmmaker BLAISE SINGH talks about PRIDE & PROTEST

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , ,

 

If Blaise Singh had not been compelled to give up his job as an Secondary School Teacher, then we would never have gained a talented filmmaker with a fresh new voice about being Asian/Black and gay in the UK today. His passion and commitment to LGBTQ/human rights is infectious and as we see in this debut documentary that he wrote/directed/produced it is important for all of us to listen and support younger generations in our community.

As PRIDE & PROTEST is about to have a VIRTUAL SCREENING as part of BFI PRIDE House Party on Sunday June 28th, QUEERGURU tracked Singh down in London to talk about film

Neil Bartlett is a queer renaissance man.  Director, performer, translator, and writer etc.  His art has collected many Awards  (including The Perrier, Time Out Dance and Theatre Awards, Writers Guild and even more admirers.  Even HM The Queen honored him with an OBE.

Of all of his talents and achievements, it’s as a chronicler of queer history that makes Bartlett a hero in Queerguru’s eyes.  From his splendid first book Who Was That Man, which showed how the gay history of London in the 1890s affected Bartlett’s life as a gay man in London in the 1980s  to his latest novel Address Book.

His passionate interest in how our past has shaped our queer present and future is such a sheer joy. So we jumped at the opportunity to talk to him about this on the eve of the publishing of Address Book by Inkandescent
