THANK YOU ELLEN PAGE, FOR YOUR POWERFUL AND GLOR QUEER RAGETRUTH TO POWERELLEN PAGE ATTACKED VICE PRINT MIKE PENCE FOR HIS ANTI-LGBT ZEALOTRY AND CHRIS PRATT FOR ATTENDG AN ANTI-LGBT CHURCH. IT’S GOOD TO HEAR A QUEER STAR SPEAK OUT SO ELOQUENTLY.SAMANTHA ALLENUPDATED JUN. 19, 2019 10:14AM EDT / PUBLISHED FEB. 13, 2019 4:49AM EST OPNPHOTO ILLTRATN BY THE DAILY BEAST/GETTYELLEN PAGE KNOWS HOW POWER WORKS.IN HER VIRAL APPEARANCE ON THE LATE SHOW WH STEPHEN COLBERT EARLIER THIS MONTH, THE OUT LBIAN ACTRS BLAMED THE PERSISTENCE OF ANTI-LGBT SENTIMENT OUR UNTRY ON POLICIANS LIKE VICE PRINT MIKE PENCE WHO AGGRSIVELY PURSUE ANTI-LGBT POLICY.“CONNECT THE DOTS,” SHE URGED, HER VOICE RISG. “THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS. IF YOU ARE A POSN OF POWER AND YOU HATE PEOPLE AND YOU WANT TO E SUFFERG TO THEM, YOU GO THROUGH THE TROUBLE, YOU SPEND YOUR REER TRYG TO E SUFFERG, WHAT DO YOU THK IS GOG TO HAPPEN? KIDS ARE GOG TO BE ABED, AND THEY’RE GOG TO KILL THEMSELV—AND PEOPLE ARE GOG TO BE BEATEN ON THE STREET.” HER ANGER WAS STRIKG, NOT BEE WASN’T JTIFIED— WAS—BUT BEE IS RARE TO SEE SUCH STRONG SENTIMENTS TELEVISED. PAGE GAVE VOICE TO THE QUEER PA THAT OFTEN GETS DROWNED OUT BY SO MUCH OTHER NOISE: LGBT YOUTH—PECIALLY TRANSGENR YOUTH—ARE ED FAR MORE LIKELY TO ATTEMPT SUICI THAN THEIR PEERS. HATE CRIM ARE ON THE RISE. TRANSGENR PEOPLE ARE BEG GUNNED DOWN, STABBED, AND BEATEN. THE ARE NOT ISOLATED PHENOMENA OCCURRG SEPARATE AND APART OM THE WHE HOE’S LONG LIST OF ANTI-LGBT ACTNS; RATHER, AS PAGE POTED OUT, THEY ARE FUELED BY A FERAL ERNMENT THAT NOT ONLY FAILS TO PROTECT LGBT PEOPLE, BUT ACTIVELY ATTACKS . WHAT’S HAPPENG D.C. ISN’T HAPPENG SI A VACUUM. HOMOPHOBIA ISN’T SOME WEATHER SYSTEM THAT’S GOG TO LGER OVER FELY UNTIL JT UP AND LEAV ONE DAY; POLICIANS LIKE TMP AND PENCE HELP PERPETUATE FOR THEIR OWN CYNIL GA.“CONNECT THE DOTS,” WAS PAGE’S PLEA—AND ’S AN PECIALLY URGENT ONE BEE TOO MANY AMERINS ARE UNABLE TO DRAW THROUGH-L WHEN TO LGBT ISSU.FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS, HAS FELT AS IF THE LGBT MUNY ARE SCREAMG OM EP UNRWATER. ONLY WHEN SOMETHG MONUMENTAL HAPPENS—LIKE THE TRANSGENR ARY BAN OR THE LEAKED MEMO OM THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVIC REFG “SEX”—DO THE GENERAL PUBLIC PAY ATTENTN, AND EVEN THEN ONLY FOR A NEWS CYCLE.THE FLEETGNS OF PUBLIC SYMPATHY N BE BLAMED PART ON AN OVERSATURATED MEDIA ENVIRONMENT WHICH SHOCKG POLIL SNDALS SEEM TO EPT BY THE MUTE. BUT ’S ALSO BEE THOSE OUTSI OF THE LGBT MUNY—EVEN OUR CLOSE ALLI—HAVE A HARD TIME ANALYZG THE POWER DYNAMICS THAT AFFECT , BY SIMPLE VIRTUE OF THE FACT THAT THEY’RE LS IMPACTED BY THEM. THEY DON’T ALWAYS SEE HOW ALL OF THE LTLE CREMENTAL ACTNS—A MEMO RCD HERE, AN AMIC BRIEF FILED THERE—ADD UP TO AN AWFUL ANTI-LGBT WHOLE. WHAT’S HAPPENED SCE TMP TOOK OFFICE IS NOT THE WORK OF A FEW BAD APPL; ’S THE WORK OF ANTI-LGBT GROUPS WORKG NCERT WH THE WHE HOE TO ROLL BACK OUR RIGHTS, AND THEN SOME.IT WAS JARRG—THOUGH SHOULDN’T BE—TO HEAR THE NEWLY-MARRIED PAGE SAY THAT MIKE PENCE “WISH [SHE] ULDN’T BE MARRIED—LET’S JT BE CLEAR” BEE ’S FAR MORE MON TO HEAR PEOPLE ON TV JOKE ABOUT THE VICE PRINT SUPPOSEDLY BEG CLOSETED THAN IS TO HEAR SOMEONE EXPRS THE HURT HE HAS ED A FORTHRIGHT, HUMAN WAY. “THE VICE PRINT OF AMERI WISH THAT I DIDN’T HAVE THE LOVE WH MY WIFE,” SAID PAGE, GTURG TO A PHOTO OF DANCER EMMA PORTNER, WHOM SHE WED LAST YEAR.THAT MOMENT WAS A REALY CHECK, BRACG S EARNTNS, AND WAS EVEN MORE FORCEFUL AGAST THE OFTEN-GLIB BACKDROP OF THE TALK SHOW FORMAT. WHEN HOST COLBERT—WHO SYMPATHETILLY LISTENED TO AND SIGNALED HIS AGREEMENT WH PAGE’S IMPROMPTU SPEECH—HAD TO ABPTLY SEGUE TO A PLUG FOR THE ACTRS’S NEW NETFLIX SERI THE UMBRELLA AMY AT THE END OF THE SEGMENT, THE DIENCE LGHED TO RELIEVE THE PRSURE. THE SHOW HAD TO GO ON.PAGE, WHO ME OUT AN EMOTNAL SPEECH AT A HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN 2014, IS NOT THE ONLY LGBT CELEBRY WHO IS UNAAID TO BE POLIL NVENTN-FLOUTG WAYS.WHEN BILLY ON THE STREET CREATOR AND NATNAL TREASURE BILLY EICHNER WAS ACSTED BY TMZ AT LAX LATE LAST YEAR—SHORTLY AFTER THE ANTI-TRANSGENR HHS MEMO REFG GENR WAS LEAKED TO THE NEW YORK TIM—HE ADPANNED, “[TMP’S] NOT REFG SH. YOU N’T REFE . IT’S A FACT OF LIFE. HE’S A FUCKG PIECE OF SH ASSHOLE. EVIL PIECE OF SH. THE WHOLE ADMISTRATN IS AWFUL.” THAT’S WEIGHTY STUFF FOR A CURBSI TERVIEW.BUT EICHNER, LIKE PAGE, IS REHGLY HIMSELF NO MATTER WHAT NTEXT HE’S PLACED . SEE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE ENDG OF HIS 2018 HRC SPEECH WHICH HE SAYS, “I HATE THAT RACIST, MISOGYNIST SEXUAL PREDATOR THE WHE HOE SO FUCKG MUCH” OR HIS 2017 COLBERT APPEARANCE WHICH HE SHOWS UP DRSED AS A BANANA BUT CLARIFI THAT HE’S A BANANA WHO “HATE[S] DONALD TMP SO MUCH—THAT LYG PIECE OF SH.” ONLY RELATIVELY RECENTLY HAVE WE SEEN A CRIL MASS OF LGBT ACTORS START TO E OUT—AND EVEN THEN, THE CLOSET STILL LOOMS LARGE. FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE, WE TURN TO ACTORS TO REFLECT OUR EXPERIENC AND EMOTNS, SO THE LGBT MUNY NEEDS PEOPLE LIKE PAGE AND EICHNER TO CHANNEL OUR RAGE. WE NEED STARS WHO N SHOW UP TO AN TERVIEW FEELG OUR PA AT SK LEVEL AND LETTG BE KNOWN—STEAD OF JT SHARG AN ANECDOTE AND SHOWG A CLIP.PAGE, FOR ONE, HAS SHOWN NO TERT ABIDG BY HOLLYWOOD’S NORMS. JT LAST WEEK, WHEN JURASSIC WORLD STAR CHRIS PRATT TALKED ABOUT HIS FAH WH COLBERT, SHE TWEETED, “OH. K. UM. BUT HIS CHURCH IS FAMOLY ANTI LGBTQ SO MAYBE ADDRS THAT TOO?” (PRATT ATTENDS THE MEGACHURCH HILLSONG, WHICH AS THE DAILY BEAST PREVLY REPORTED OPPOS SAME-SEX MARRIAGE AND DO NOT ALLOW LGBT PEOPLE TO BE LEARS.) GOG UP AGAST ONE OF THE HIGHT-PAID ACTORS THE WORLD WAS A BIG MOVE, AND ONE THAT MOST PAGE’S POSN WOULDN’T RISK—BUT THE JUNO STAR DIDN’T BACK DOWN THE FACE OF THE EVABLE BACKLASH. INSTEAD, SHE PROVED AGA THAT SHE UNRSTANDS HOW POWER WORKS, TWEETG, “BEG ANTI LGBTQ IS WRONG, THERE AREN’T TWO SIS. THE DAMAGE IS SEVERE. FULL STOP.” (PRATT LATER FEND HILLSONG ON INSTAGRAM, SAYG THAT, “I GO TO A CHURCH THAT OPENS THEIR DOORS TO ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE” BUT WHOUT SPECIFILLY ADDRSG THE POLICI TO WHICH PAGE WAS REFERRG.)PAGE SMARTLY REF TO DRAW A DISTCTN BETWEEN ANTI-LGBT SENTIMENT JTIFIED BY RELIGN AND ANTI-LGBT SENTIMENT JTIFIED BY, WELL, WHAT OTHER REASON IS THERE FOR , REALLY? IN AMERI, THE GOP’S ANTI-LGBT CSA HAS LONG BEEN A NVENIENT WAY TO RILE UP AN EVANGELIL BASE THAT LARGELY OPPOS SAME-SEX MARRIAGE AND TRANSGENR EQUALY. HILLSONG MAY LOOK A LOT HIPPER THAN YOUR AVERAGE EVANGELIL CHURCH—AND A BIG-NAME HOLLYWOOD ACTOR MIGHT GO TO S SERVIC—BUT THAT DON’T MEAN THAT IS FUNCTNALLY ANY DIFFERENT OM OTHER ANIZATNS WHICH REGARDS HOMOSEXUALY AS IMMORAL. AS PAGE MIGHT SAY, NNECT THE DOTS.WE KNOW BY NOW THAT LGBT PEOPLE ARE WHO WE SAY WE ARE. CONVERSN THERAPY HAS BEEN PROVEN TO BE NOT JT EFFECTIVE BUT PSYCHOLOGILLY HARMFUL, TOO. WHAT PAGE TIMATELY UNRSTANDS—THE POSN OM WHICH SHE REF TO BACK DOWN—IS THAT THERE IS NO MORAL WAY TO BE AGAST LGBT PEOPLE BEG LGBT. THERE IS NO OTHER SI.AND PERHAPS NO MOMENT BROUGHT THE BOLDNS OF THAT POSN TO SHARPER RELIEF THAN A TWEET OM ANOTHER ELLEN ON MONDAY: AMID ALL OF THIS, ELLEN DEGENER—WHO RECENTLY DREW CRICISM FOR HER HANDLG OF THE KEV HART OSRS SNDAL—TWEETED OUT A SEGMENT OF HER AND PRATT PLAYG A GAME ON HER TALK SHOW. GAY TWTER SWARMED THE TWEET WH CRIL REPLI. IF THE REACTN TO DEGENER—HERSELF AN LGBT TRAILBLAZER—IS ANY DITN, ’S THAT THE RISG GENERATN OF LGBT AMERINS WANTS TO SEE THEIR ON-SCREEN REPRENTATIV STICK UP FOR THEM AT ALL TIM, STEAD OF SHYG AWAY OM POLICS TO BE POLE, OR TO PLAY BY HOLLYWOOD’S UNSPOKEN L. WE WANT CELEBRI WHOSE MMENT TO LGBT EQUALY DON’T HAVE AN OFF SWCH. WE WANT ELLEN PAGE, ALL HER GLOR QUEER RAGE. SAMANTHA ALLEN
