I'd write a piece abt the 2 Edith Wilsons I saw as a boy. their stories. how they overlapped (or didn't). & how those biographies resonated with the history of our nation.
Edith Bolling Galt Wilson. perhaps the most powerful First Lady.
Edith Wilson. jazz singer who for years portrayd Aunt Jemima.
is not just one of the best gay film festivals but one of the best film festivals. this is its 18th year. & this year I finally became a sponsor. one reason is to pay back for all the years of richness it's given me.
but I also feel a responsibility in these dark times to support the arts. as the slide into a dictatorship has become quicker I fear for the well being of the LGBTQ community & the future of the arts.
this weekend & next I'll stay away from the news & see film after film.
