The Watermelon Woman (1996)

The heat got to us this week, folks. Despite our melted brains, we talked about a movie that is as fantastic as it is historic. Cheryl Dunye’s 1996 film The Watermelon Woman is a must-see for any baby gay. Haley makes the case for your local library (again), while Claire has a minor existential crisis about lost media, whether it goes by way of Adobe pulling the plug on flash player or a few people in musty buildings deeming certain aspects of history "unimportant."
