August 26 – Black Leather: A History of People in Color in Leather and BDSM by Sir Guy

Vegas Toolbox presents Sir Guy with Black Leather: A History of People of Color in Leather and BDSM on August 26

When we hear of the histories of BDSM and Leather, the conversations often go to the early white gay male community or some European houses, but the fact of the matter is, just like American history, People of Color have had a long and storied history in the BDSM and Leather communities, not just as participants but as leaders. This history is rich and needs to be explored. Sir Guy will be your tour guide as we take the first steps into exploring various aspects of the histories of People of Color in Leather and BDSM.

This class is open only to students of Vegas Toolbox, who have either attended in person classes or a Vegas Toolbox remote orientation.
