O’Shae Sibley’s passion for dance was transcendent. Those closest to him told CNN the 28-year-old had the ability to turn even the most boring locations into a vibrant dance floor.
“O’Shae was always dancing in some way, shape or form, everywhere,” said Kayden Coleman, a transgender advocate who was friends with Sibley.
Family and friends honoured Sibley Tuesday during funeral services in his hometown of Philadelphia. They celebrated Sibley’s passion for the arts with dancing and music from one of his favourite artists: Beyoncé. In 2021, anti-LGBTQ2S+ bias accounted for 17.7% of all reported hate crimes in New York, according to a New York Division of Criminal Justice Services report released in December.
Many in the LGBTQ2S+ community have embraced Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” album as a love letter to Black, queer culture. Voguing is a form of dance that borrows moves and poses similar to the ones found in editorial fashion magazines, according to the National Museum of African American History and Culture.
“As a Black gay man, coming to a space where people are like, ‘Yes, we want you to come and be feminine and serve and show us’ … it’s very powerful,” Jewel said.
