In summer 2019, Greg Youmans served as the film consultant for the Oakland Museum of California’s exhibition “Queer California: Untold Stories.” The exhibition, which marked the fiftieth anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Riots, was on view from April 13 to August 11. Youmans also gave a talk at the museum about the film selections in June. In his teaching, he developed a new course topic for ENG 464, Advanced Topics in Film Studies: “Queer Experimental.” The course surveys the history of avant-garde film and media production by queer and trans artists, and in its first iteration, taught in Spring 2020 during the pandemic, it featured online class visits from a number of contemporary filmmakers.
