In this video, I dissect how the pursuit of profit often eclipses the representation and recognition of LGBTQ+ voices in mainstream media, like James Baldwin; in light of the forthcoming James Baldwin biopic by Zionist Billy Poter.. I dig into the troubling trend of how capitalism dictates which narratives are elevated and which are suppressed. And we try to answer - Has Billy Porter ALREADY Ruined The James Baldwin Biopic?"
