The event is being produced as part of the #MakeItGay live reads series, founded during COVID-19 quarantine as a way to “reimagine typically white, straight, cis and male films into ones with diverse casts of various queer people.”

The nerve of calling this series Make It Gay.

I might dislike it when they try to force queer as an umbrella term for us... But I hate it even more when they use gay as an umbrella term for them, especially in situations like this that they use the word "gay" while also making actual gayness problematic.
