My plan had been for this to be a daily thing for the month of June, but things didn't work out that way. I will still be putting up my 30 LGBTQ+ YouTube Creator Recs anyway. It will just extend past June. My reason for focusing on YouTube creators is that YouTube is suppressing queer content across the platform and it's not like that's something that magically stops being a problem at the end of June anyway.

1. Kaz Rowe (they/them)

Their YouTube content is long-form history essays, usually focusing on the weirder parts of history and LGBTQ+ history, describing their own content as "creative lectures on weird, queer, or forgotten history."

I've been a long time fan of their well-researched content, costumes, and thoughtfully detailed sets. They are clearly passionate about the subjects they cover and their sources are always cited in the descriptions of their videos.

My top three favorite videos are:

The 1840s Lesbian "Mobs" That Took Over Prisons

Why Did So Many Lighthouse Keepers "Go Mad"?

A Look at Queerness in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

Outside of YouTube, they are a cartoonist, illustrator, historical researcher, and self-described train appreciator. They have an ongoing, long form urban fantasy webcomic, Cunning Fire. They frequently create many comics dedicated to LGBTQ+ historical figures. And they've written a graphic novel, Liberated: The Radical Art and Life of Claude Cahun.

(Doing this on my phone means no links for now sorry)
