Lift Me Up by mcsiegle

Lift Me Up

Another shot from the Little Apple Pride celebration here in Manhattan last Saturday. This is Lil Kim Chi, one of the drag performers who provided entertainment for the event. In this number she's signing the song, "Lift Me Up" in ASL (American Sign Language). It was very moving -- particularly so to me because our son is deaf and uses ASL. He wasn't with me at the Pride celebration. He lives in Olathe and probably wouldn't have been interested in going to this with me -- his tastes running more to horror movies than Pride parades and drag entertainment. :-)
Another shot from the day:

She looks like she means every word. This is a lovely moving portrait.

Nice to see a serious portrait of drag artist - that many of them have serious talent is often ignored.

I so agree with Richard.
