con Adora y Teddy Behr
Adora: Teddy "No puedo decidir qué ponerme para la inauguración del espectáculo 'Queer Miami' en el Museo de Historia de Miami. Se trata de la historia LGBTQ de Miami, así que estoy pensando en vintage. Podría ser la década de 1940, pero también vi algunas de las fotos de la Exposición de las décadas de los 50, los 60 y los 70 ... mucho territorio en realidad. 58 | Hotspots.LGBT
Teddy: Vi la foto de Anita Bryant en la exhibición ... Ella era de 1977, aunque 'se parece a los '50, así que tal vez sea algo opuesto a ella ya que es una de las personas más antiLGBTQ en la historia de Miami. . Adora: Mmmmm, ese fue un momento difícil: las cosas se estaban abriendo un poco en la aceptación de LGBTQ y ella vino y trató de provocar una reacción contra nosotros. Lo
que muestra la exposición es que nuestra gente salió a la calle. Mirando hacia atrás, parece que todo fue contraproducente: nos levantamos y dijimos ¡NO !, y cuando la gente comienza a prestar más atención a la forma en que nos trataron, en su mayoría adoptaron una opinión más tolerante. Por suerte, la Sra. Bryant perdió su trabajo publicitario para Florida Orange Juice. El odio y el rechazo son un mensaje feo, y afortunadamente la mayoría de las personas lo entienden ... incluso si es posible, no necesariamente de inmediato. Teddy Behr: Sí: el primer desfile del orgullo gay de Miami fue un año más tarde, en 1978, y hay varias fotos de personas en el desfile. No puede haber sido una coincidencia que siguiera los ataques de Anita Bryant. Mucho, tal vez la mayoría de los gays y lesbianas todavía estaban encerrados si podían lograrlo, pero a medida que más y más personas acudían a sus familias, amigos y compañeros de trabajo, la gente pudo ver eso: ¡estaban rodeados por los Estados Unidos! que la gente nos conocía y sabía que no éramos una amenaza. Así que los primeros días del Orgullo Gay, que en ese entonces se llamaba 'Marcha por los Derechos Gay', y la gente que salía de los armarios, era realmente importante. Adora: Mmmm ... Drag era realmente escandaloso entonces y dudo que la gente pudiera siquiera imaginar un programa de televisión como Ru Paul de Drag Race. En 1980, muchos gays y lesbianas pudieron salir de Cuba en el
elevador de barcos MARIEL, porque por muy mal que fuera en los EE. UU. Para los LGBTQ, era aún más grave en Cuba: se podía ir a la cárcel por hacer Drag. Hay fotos de refugiados LGBTQ en el barco Captain Preston que llega a Miami en la exhibición. Teddy Behr: También hay una foto de Pedro Zamora con su padre. Se convirtió en una sensación mediática porque salió: no solo era gay, sino que vivía con VIH / SIDA en uno de los primeros programas de televisión de realidad: El mundo real: San Francisco. La gente realmente se enfrentó a todo esto en la televisión, que tenía que ser enorme en ese momento porque humanizaba y personalizaba toda la crisis que enfrentaba la comunidad LGBTQ. Incluso con todo el miedo, la gente vio cómo nos estaban afectando y estigmatizando. Adora: Oh sí, Pedro creció en Cuba y Hialeah. Descubrió que era VIH positivo cuando todavía estaba en Hialeah High School y decidió comprometerse con la concientización sobre el SIDA, que era muy valiente en ese entonces, antes de que personas como Liz Taylor o la Princesa Diana se involucraran en el apoyo a personas con SIDA. Pedro Zamora y su amante, Sean Sasser (a quien conoció en el programa de televisión), crearon una "Ceremonia de compromiso" en la televisión, y ganó el premio a la "Historia de amor favorita del espectador" unos años más tarde. Murió en 1994, pero hizo mucho por la concientización sobre el SIDA; Ayudando a las personas a unirse durante esa crisis. Las personas fuera de nuestras comunidades vieron el
coraje que surgía de la crisis que enfrentábamos. Teddy Behr: Como parte de la exposición, hay un lugar donde cualquiera puede publicar sus propias historias en FB en: facebook.com/events/73998066 3024789/?active_tab=discussion Ya hay algunas publicaciones interesantes ... Entonces, la exhibición puede servir como un catalizador para las personas que comparten el pasado o el presente en la comunidad LGBTQ. Es importante, especialmente para que las personas mayores compartan sus historias, para obtener documentación real de primera mano y recuerdos de cómo tantas personas navegaron en secreto, vidas reprimidas, enfrentaron discriminación abierta y encubierta, e incluso violencia, a medida que hemos trasladado nuestro amor hacia el interior. Luz para que todos la reconozcan, acepten y valoren, como todo amor debe ser ". Adora: Todavía tenemos mucho que hacer para nuestras comunidades y realmente para
todos los que puedan sentirse un poco ajenos al viejo género u otros estereotipos sociales. Se ha logrado mucho para las personas Trans, y los niños trans han visto algo de enfoque y refuerza la atención, pero los avances realmente grandes apenas han comenzado. En cuanto a 'Masculino' y 'Femenino', en realidad son simplemente construcciones idealizadas, y la mayoría de las personas son mezclas o comportamientos 'Masculino / Femenino, psiques e incluso rasgos físicos ... Como reconocemos que nadie es realmente masculino, o 'todomujer', podemos dejarlo pasar y simplemente descubrir, y permitirnos a los demás ser lo que somos, o convertirnos en lo que podamos sentir. Amo a las personas que se sienten libres de ser y convertirse en lo que sienten. Sorpresa, llegas a ser quien eres! Sabemos que se necesita coraje, pero cuando nos aceptamos ... ¡wow! Teddy Behr: Sí, recuerdo la primera vez que me puse un

genre latino / Culturizate vestido, porque me criaron muy "chico", fue realmente liberador. Era como si se hubiera soltado algo y se hubiera soltado, y me encontré mirando mi lado femenino justo allí en el espejo. Pero lo más importante es la forma en que a muchas personas se les enseñó que quienes son, en su ser más expresivo y más profundo, no estaban "bien". Que era vergonzoso, incluso pecaminoso, y tenía que ser reprimido. Enfrentémoslo: 'en cualquier momento que podamos dejar de lado cualquier tipo de miedo, ya sea individual o colectivamente, creamos más espacio para el amor, la aceptación y la conexión ... y como usted dijo: ¡DIVERSIÓN!
Gay Rights March Miami, 1978.
Adora: Teddy” I can't decide what to wear to the opening of the 'Queer Miami” show at History Miami Museum. It's all about the LGBTQ History of Miami, so I'm thinking vintage. It's could be the 1940's, but I saw some of the Exhibit photos from the 50's, 60's, and the '70's too...a lot of territory really. Teddy: I saw the photo of Anita Bryant from the exhibit… She was from 1977, though' she looks kind of like the '50's, so maybe something that's the opposite of her since she's one of the most anti-LGBTQ people in Miami's history. Adora: Mmmmm that was a tough time: things were opening up a bit in LGBTQ acceptance and she came
along and tried to whip up a reaction against us. What the exhibit shows is that our people took to the streets. Looking back, it seems like it all back-fired: we stood up and said NO!, and as people begin to pay closer attention to the way we'd been treated, they mostly took a more tolerant view. Luckily Ms. Bryant lost her advertising gig for Florida Orange Juice. Hate and rejection is an ugly message, and luckily most people get that…even if maybe not necessarily right away. Teddy Behr: Yes: The first Miami Gay Pride Parade was a year later in 1978, and there are several pictures of people at the parade. It can't have been a coincidence that it followed Anita Bryant's attacks. Lots, maybe most Gays and Lesbians were still closeted if they could pull it off, but as more and more people came out to their families, friends and coworkers, people were able to see that: they were surrounded by US!, and that people knew us and knew we weren't a threat. So those early days of Gay Pride, which was called 'Gay Rights March' back then, and people coming out of closets, were really important. Adora: Mmmm…Drag was like really outrageous then and I doubt people could even imagine a TV show like RuPaul's Drag Race. In 1980 a lot of Gays and Lesbians were able to leave Cuba in the MARIEL boat lift, because as bad as it was in
the US for LGBTQ's, it was even more serious in Cuba: you could get jail time for doing Drag. There are pics of LGBTQ refugees on the Captain Preston Boat arriving in Miami in the exhibit. Teddy Behr: There's also a picture of Pedro Zamora with his father. He became a media sensation because he came out: not just Gay but living with HIV/AIDS on one of the first Reality TV Shows: The Real World: San Francisco. People were really confronted with the whole thing on TV, which had to be huge at the time because it humanized and personalized the whole crisis the LGBTQ community was facing. Even with all the fear, people saw how we were being affected and stigmatized. Adora: Oh yes, Pedro grew up in Cuba and Hialeah. He found out he was HIV positive while still in Hialeah High School and decided to commit himself to AIDS awareness, which was supercourageous back then, before people like Liz Taylor or Princess Diana got involved in supporting people With AIDS. Pedro Zamora and his lover, Sean Sasser (who he met on the TV show), created a 'Commitment Ceremony' on TV, and it won the award for 'Viewer's Favorite Love Story' a few years later. He died in 1994, but he did so much for AIDS awareness; helping people to come together during that crisis. People outside our communities saw the courage coming out of the crisis we were facing.
Gay Rights March 3, 1978. Teddy Behr: As part of the exhibition, there's a place where anyone can post their own stories on FB at: facebook.com/events/739980663024789/?active_tab=discussi on. There are already some interesting posts…So the exhibit can serve as a catalyst for people sharing about the past or present in the LGBTQ community. It's important, especially for older people to share their stories, for real first-hand documentation and memories of how so many people navigated secret, repressed lives, faced overt and covert discrimination, and even violence, as we've moved our love into the light for everybody to recognize, to accept and to value, just as all love should be.” Adora: We still have a lot to do for our communities and really for everybody who might feel a bit outside of old gender, or other social stereotypes. A lot has been achieved for Trans people, and trans kids have seen some focus and reinforcing attention, but the really great advances have just begun. As far as 'Male' and 'Female' they are really just idealized constructs, and most people are blends or mixes of 'Male/Female behavior, psyches and even physical traits.. .As we recognize that nobody's really all-male, or 'all-female', we can let it go and just discover, and allow each other to be who we are, or to become who we might feel like. I love people feeling free to be and to become who they feel. Surprise, you get to be who you are! We know it takes courage, but when we accept ourselves…wow! Teddy Behr: Yup, I remember the first time I put on a dress, because I was brought up very 'boy', it was really liberating. It was like something was just let go of and released, and I found myself looking at my feminine side right there in the mirror. But the bigger thing is the way so many people were taught that who they are, in their deepest most-expressive self, wasn't 'OK.' That it was shameful, even sinful, and had to be repressed. Let's face it: 'anytime we can let go of any kind of fear, either individually or collectively, we create more space for love, acceptance and connection…and like you said: FUN!
