00:00I had a message on my answering machine, um, hi, I'm trying to reach Carlton, this is Madonna, and I was like, what the fuck?
00:30That tour is about freedom, freedom as a human being, freedom in regards to speak the truth, I still vaguely fit into it, it was a wild, high velocity family, each one of us would have taken a bullet for each one of us, this sort of daring progressive message was that you can be gay and human, I want to be like those guys, be that sort of free and open,
00:59I saw two men kiss for the first time, like, no, can we try what people think of us?
01:07No!
01:11Bring it back down, what's your secret?
01:16Faking that you're strong, faking that you are confident, faking almost all of it.
01:24You hold it back...
01:28With AIDS coming out and HIV, everyone got really scared.
01:34It was terrifying, it was terrifying enough to scare people into silence.
01:39There was a whole other backstage, you know, that you didn't get to see, that none of us were ready to talk about.
01:51And it's hard because this is the first time, so...
01:58And real slow, slow, slow.
02:01Be proud, you know, be proud, whatever it is.
