Take a deep dive into the history of LGBTQIA+ animators and representation in animation. We’re taking a look back over the last 90 years – from the Hays Code to Steven Universe – to see how queerness in animation and its critical reception has evolved over the years and what the future may hold!

Love a good video on proper representatiob!
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
Excelent research and video about LGBTQ+ representation in animation.
Less than 500 views. Why the plug from Cartoon Brew?
This is so helpful and informative. 🙂
Wow, this is awesome.
Outstanding!
Yes! Spotlighting what really matters here.
Yooo this is a dope video!
Generally like the video BUT have to comment.
I'd like to see the day when non-heteronormative characters stop being called some version of 'bad queers'.
a ad that's not absolutely terrible
what trickery is this
This video sucks.
90 more minutes of this please. Feature length documentary. Go get yo Oscar.
Legend of Korra did it before Steven universe and adventure time
This was an ad

Dead end: Paranormal Park’s main character is trans and the main character says it in episode two 🙂 Check the show out it is AWSOME.
Yes these are the kind of YouTube adds I want to see. Seriously though I really love this video and its extremely informative, thank you.
I'm sick of this stuff… I literally can't seem to watch anything with a progressive agenda crammed down my throat…
I hope you keep making these videos. They’re important
Reminds me how in the new live-action monster high musical they're making, they made Clawdeen- a confirmed lesbian character- be in a relationship with a man. Meanwhile they seem to be trying to cover it up by making the main character Frankie, previously only ever depicted as female, be non-binary.
I got this ad
The fear of backlash is the same reason the US military won’t let non-binary people exist, but does allow binary trans people to exist.
Ive never voluntarily clicked on a youtube ad. Glad I did though, this is a really interesting video.
