Communites of African Descent: June 2008 Archives

Last night, the entire first season of Noah's Arc aired on BET J, a network that was recently honored by GLAAD for its LGBT inclusivity. As The Daily Voice notes, this marathon marked the first black television network broadcast of a gay-themed television series.Noah's Arc -- which follows a group of black gay friends in Los Angeles -- was created by writer-director Patrik-Ian Polk and originally aired on Logo. Polk has expressed his excitement about the show airing on BET J, commenting, "It's a great opportunity to introduce the show to a whole new audience that may not have discovered the Logo network, and it gives them a taste of what's coming in the new Noah's Arc feature film this fall."
