For those of you who don't know, I have another channel where I make videos about music and films. I just released a new documentary about David Bowie. We can learn a lot from him, too.
It's finally out!
I just released a new video about David Bowie, the one who reminded us that identity is fluid, expression is freedom, and all of us can be heroes, even if it’s just for one day.
