Sweets rightfully gained acceptance and freedom not commonly enjoyed by most queers and Blacks in Lexington which was segregated at the time. Sweets was rarely harassed because he knew the sexual desires of local powerful white men, which she used as a threat to ensure the safety of herself and other LGBT townies. When police raided a drag performance and arrested drag queens, Sweets called the judge on their case and the charges were dropped. Miss Sweets died in her 90s on Dec. 16, 1983, the Royal Sovereign Imperial Court of All Kentucky named its highest honor the James Herndon Award (Sweet’s birth name), and in 2006, the Lexington Men’s Chorus also named its singing ensemble after his chosen name.
