Smashing taboos and redefining philanthropy, Payasos L.A. is an organization of gay Latino men who wear clown make-up, go-go dance, and try to make the world a better place for future generations. Rad Queers: Payasos L.A. takes a look at the Payasos’ optimistic philosophy as well as their sexy fund-raising parties. “Mr. Los Angeles Leather” 2011 title-holder and Payasos founder Leo Iriarte walks us through the wild world of his happy band of clowns, providing a uniquely personal perspective on this extraordinary group.

Thanks for posting this, V. I've seen adverts for their fund raisers and I know many of them are involved in BearsLA...I've admired them from afar because my perception has always been that it IS a Latino thing and outsiders aren't necessarily welcome. I think this clip helped to demystify the group. Oh and yeah...there's not a single Payasos member I wouldn't do.
