In this video, we look at 3 times gay history was changed. From a reluctant model, closeted actor and an award winning film – all three had a lasting impact on queer history.
Tuck Powell was a one-time model who’s magazine issue is one of the most sought after issues today.
James Dean was years ahead of his time at the height of his career. Even today, his sexuality is a subject of debate.
And lastly, the movie Wings (1927) featured the first ever onscreen kiss between two men.
