Description

*”Jackie: Public, Private, Secret”* is a 2021 documentary directed by **Aisling Chin-Yee** and **Chantal James**, centered on the life of **Jackie Shane**, a groundbreaking transgender soul singer and civil rights activist from the 1960s. The film delves into Jackie Shane’s life, uncovering her story through the lens of her music, activism, and her complex relationship with her gender identity.

The documentary takes a deep dive into both the public persona and the private struggles of Shane. While she was beloved for her performances in the 1960s soul music scene, she remained largely out of the spotlight for decades, making her legacy somewhat mysterious. Through interviews, archival footage, and a close examination of her time in the music scene, the film highlights Shane’s remarkable influence on the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as the broader African American civil rights movements of the time.

The title itself refers to how Jackie Shane was forced to live in a world that often only accepted parts of her identity—her public persona as a glamorous performer, her private life as a trans woman navigating complex social dynamics, and the secret aspects of her life that remained hidden from the world. The documentary serves to bring those secrets into the light, offering a fuller picture of Shane’s legacy and her contributions to both music and queer history.

Shane’s story is not only one of musical achievement but also a poignant reflection of the challenges and triumphs of being a transgender person in an era when both race and gender were major social divides.
