00:00Nabeel, I barely recognized you.
00:13Good to see you.
00:14Come.
00:15We're developing this whole area from the ground up.
00:17That's amazing.
00:18Good morning, homosexuals.
00:19I am taking donations.
00:20Jesus Christ.
00:21How do you feel about overdevelopment in this country?
00:23I don't think I like it.
00:24Then donate.
00:25I'm just trying to collect money to save my bar.
00:26Well, it's our home.
00:27They're turning it into condos.
00:28What kind of bar is this?
00:29LGBTQ-topia.
00:30Hey, y'all.
00:31This is Nabeel.
00:32Did you like the show, baby?
00:33Yes.
00:34Our iconic queer venue moment.
00:35I'm so proud of you.
00:36Thank you.
00:37Thank you.
00:38Thank you.
00:39Thank you.
00:40Thank you.
00:41Thank you.
00:42Thank you.
00:43Thank you.
00:44Thank you.
00:45Thank you.
00:46Thank you.
00:47Thank you.
00:48Thank you.
00:49Thank you.
00:50Thank you.
00:51Our iconic queer venue, Mandy's, is at risk of permanent death.
00:54We will never raise enough to save this place.
00:56But we have to do something.
00:57We have to try.
00:58They can't stop all of us.
01:04Do you make these dresses yourself?
01:06Everything you see, I made.
01:08I want to learn this.
01:09This is my mother's.
01:10This is her legacy, and I'm finishing it for her.
01:15Are you planning on doing this, these dresses?
01:17I don't know yet.
01:18I think I'll know when I get there.
01:22What are you doing?
01:23Aligning yourself with these people.
01:24You don't even know them, Baba.
01:25You're kicking them out of their homes.
01:27Queers will not go silently.
01:30Mandy's is part of LGBT history, and I'll be damned if I'm going to stand by and let you eradicate us from the history books.
01:41Even if we lose, we're still family.
01:43And we'll always be family.
01:46My name is Queen Tut.
