- Description
- 1 videocassette (9 min.) : sd., col.; 1/2 in.
- Summary
- "Riggs' experimental music video politicizes the homoeroticism of African-American men. With images, sexual and defiant, and words intended to provoke, [the tape] asserts our "self-evident right" to life and liberty in an era of pervasive anti-gay, anti-Black backlash and hysterical cultural repression."
