Michael Crawford and Aisha Moodie-Mills Discuss Invisibility, Closeted Black Celebrities, and More

Aisha Moodie-Mills talks with Michael Crawford about LGBT issues for Huffington Post Gay Voices.

Now we continue, in honor of Black History Month, asking prominent, accomplished and incisive people who are black and LGBT to join the Voice To Voice series to help foster a better understanding of the issues and challenges that arise at the intersection of both communities.

Already this month we’ve featured Lawana Mayfield and Rhonda Watlington, Meshell Ndegeocello and Toshi Reagon, Laverne Cox and M. Lamar, and Clay Cane and Janet Mock.

Today we bring you Michael Crawford and Aisha Moodie-Mills.
