Description

From the ashes of the Stonewall Riots rose a civil rights movement, and a band that challenged people’s perceptions of masculinity followed in its wake. Today we discuss The Village People’s career, their role in bringing queer culture to mainstream audiences, and their enduring legacy in American pop culture. We also discuss whether these macho men have a place in the Rock Hall.
