Honolulu's Historic GLBT Culture

A L O H A !
 
The Glades Project (Re-Enactment filming Behind the Scenes) from Connie M. Florez on Vimeo.

Many years ago. . . 

On Honolulu's famous Hotel Street

their was a place where

the boys were prettier than the girls.

That place was The Glades.

Drag performers all wore a button

by Honolulu law

that read: "I am a boy."

Black Men in America

were carrying signs that said:

"I Am A Man."

Those were some times!

Today, my friend Connie

is making a film. . . 

about a time. . . 

about special people. . .

Cute Cat Pics

A  L  O  H  A !

“Time spent 
with a cat 
is never wasted.” 

 Colette

“There are 

no ordinary 

cats.” 

               Colette

“Like Batman, 

all of us hide behind our masks 

and use them to help define ourselves for others. 

We all have secret identities of a sort, 

hidden behind our smiling social-networking profiles 

or our happy church faces. They're not lies, really. 

They're just not the whole truth, 

because we know that most of the people 

we encounter day-to-day couldn't handle the truth 

(or perhaps we couldn't handle giving it to them)."

Paul Asay, God on the Streets of Gotham:

What the Big Screen Batman Can Teach Us about God and Ourselves

Wow! Really? 

All THAT from Batman, Professor?

Thank YOU

for looking in!
