Pride Month continues as Christopher and Eric head to Texas for a True Crime TV Club installment that deepens their previous episode’s discussion of crime and hate in the Lone Star State. It turns out Paul Quintanilla was just one of many queer people who lost their lives to cable TV’s supercharging of bigoted televangelists in the 1990’s. In season 2, episode 3 of VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL, entitled “The Killing Trail”, we follow a hateful and bloody path from the windswept beaches outside Corpus Christi to the public parks of Dallas. Along the way they encounter brave, dedicated activists who managed to effect change in one of the country’s most conservative states.
