Marlon M. Bailey: I first heard of QED during the COVID-19 pandemic, when I was invited to contribute to a forum. This was during a pandemic where I was sequestered. We …
Every Nigga Is a Star”
Barry Jenkins's Moonlight opens with this refrain from the 1973 Boris Gardiner hit “Every Nigger Is a Star,”1 as Juan (played by Academy-Award-winning Mahershala Ali) rolls up in a 1973 Chevrolet Impala Custom coupe. He is immediately met by two other Black men, one a drug-dealing colleague and the other who is searching for a drug fix. The man asking for the drug hook-up turns to Juan and compliments with conviction: “you know you my man, right …

Sexual Discretion
"African American men who have sex with men while maintaining a heterosexual lifestyle in public are attracting increasing interest from both the general media and scholars. Commonly referred to as "down-low" or "DL" men, many continue to have relationships with girlfriends and wives who remain unaware of their same-sex desires, and in much of the media, DL men have been portrayed as carriers of HIV who spread the virus to black women. Sexual Dis…

Out” in the Club
This essay explores the relationship between black masculine performances, the club space, and men on the "down low” (DL). Some black men who have sex with other men, who dis-identify with normative descriptors of sexuality, refer to themselves as “men on the down low.” The assumption about DL men, in recent publications, is that they do not reside in identifiably gay or queer spaces. This essay examines “The Gate”—a gay black club in Chicago—as …
Transformance

This essay explores drag performances of gospel music and its relationship with the spectator at the Biology Bar, a Black gay drag site in Chicago. By examining the shift from the club "space" to the church "place," this research locates s…
