Meet the Queer Titans of Media Who Made This Year's Out100
While streaming queer-themed content is becoming more and more accessible on big-name services like Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, and Disney+, it’s important that there are other platforms out there that are founded and run by queer folks, especially since many mainstream platforms have corporate interests that don’t always align with those of the greater LGBTQ+ community.
That’s why services like Revry are so important. Besides offering an extensive library of LGBTQ+ TV series, films, and music, the streaming network was founded by a diverse group of LGBTQ+ folks. And in the six years since its founding, Revry has become a go-to place for many queer fans to get all the content they could ever want.
“Cofounding Revry has afforded me the opportunity to present LGBTQ+ voices and perspectives to a global audience,” cofounder and chief product officer LaShawn McGhee says. “I facilitate queer representation and, through streaming media, put a human face on our vibrant culture. Revry is a place where we can be seen and where we can discover other experiences within the queer community.”
