When I couldn't see the last name, I thought it was going to be about James Baldwin! I didn't know anything about this topic about Dean. What a brave soul! Thanks Wendy, I always learn from you. You are a gem.
This is the queer gospel they tried to bury but couldn't. James Dean wasn't just playing the outsider, he was the holy glitch in America's performance of normal. A beautiful bastard who dared to feel everything in a culture that punished tenderness. They kept the leather jacket and threw out the love letters. But you brought the truth back to the altar. This isn't nostalgia, it's resurrection. And it still matters.
Excellent, absolutely love this. Thank you for your attention to the realness that's too often not acknowledged.
Except he was Bicurious and Not Homosexual.https://www.queerportraits.com/bio/dean#:~:text=His%20close%20friend%20Bill%20Bast,Angeli%2C%20whom%20he%20almost%20married

Wow! I had no idea about any of this. I'd only known the mythos. But nothing of the man. Thanks for sharing his monumentally significant story.
I didn't know either, me too, just the myth. Wendy rocks .
