Queer History Lesson | The Drag Balls that Invented Voguing | RTÉ

RTÉ – IRELAND’S NATIONAL PUBLIC SERVICE MEDIA published this video item, entitled “Queer History Lesson | The Drag Balls that Invented Voguing | RTÉ” – below is their description.

Shane Daniel Byrne is here to teach you all about LGBTQ+ history, from flags to voguing and everything in between.

You know voguing, you know how to throw shade, and you know how to WERK. But did you know that these actions and phrases and so many more, can all be accredited to the 1980s underground New York ballroom scene of the black and Latin queer and trans subculture.
