The series explores the myths of masculinity and femininity within the gay male community; tackling the issue of internalized homophobia and lack of representation of effeminate men as role models in the LGBT community. With the exception of Darrell Jones the entire cast—some from Washington D.C., and New York—attended the premiere and participated in a talk moderated by Bradshaw, a professor at DePaul University.
At the end of the event Jenson presented Bradshaw with an Outstanding Professor Award for her role as a mentor to LGBT students. For more information on future episodes of 50 Faggots, visit www.50Faggots.com. Photos and text by Emmanuel Garcia
