RIO RANCHO, N.M. – The 2018 film, “Love, Simon,” brought a fresh perspective to the first love, coming-of-age genre through the eyes of a gay teen.Exploring love's innocence, isolation, and fear of rejection, the film showed that a story about an LGBTQ character could transcend and be included in the narrative of American life.
But like most LGBTQ projects, it was told from the experiences of a white gay male."Love Victor,'' a spinoff series, premieres Friday on Hulu.
