PRIDE AT THE FOWLER – ARCHIVING GAY HISTORY

Event Type
Culture & Community
Event Department
Cultural Affairs
Description
The Fowler, the UCLA Film & Television Archive, and ONE Archives at USC are proud to co-present a program in honor of Pride, focusing on the work of contemporary artist Sadie Barnette and filmmaker Whitney Skauge at the intersection of art, archives, and anti-erasure efforts. Recent celebrated projects by Barnette and Skauge feature archival content about the lives of two gay Black activists—the 1992 presidential candidate Terence Alan Smith, aka Joan Jett Blakk, and Black Panther Party member Rodney Barnette, who established the first Black-owned gay bar in San Francisco—who fought against political oppression and advocated for the safety of their community at the height of the AIDS crisis in the early 90s.

Description
Club Tempo is one of the only remaining Gay Latino Bars in the area with an emphasis on the LA vaquero (cowboy) scene. Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles, or The Los Angeles Rainbow Mariachi (in English), is the world’s first LGBTQ+ mariachi. A unique and dynamic ensemble representing the traditions of the rich culture of Mexico, this group was created as a haven for mariachi musicians who identify as LGBTQ+ to come together and perform traditional Mexican regional music in an otherwise “machista” and discriminatory subculture of the mariachi world.
