People's History of Grand Rapids LGBT Documentary
-
The People's History of Grand Rapids LGBT Documentary debuted last night at GVSU's downtown Loosemore Auditorium. I couldn't go unfortunately, but I am dying to see it!
@kevin, I know you went, how was it?
Are there are any other opportunities to see it? -

A lot of the content in the film is organized pretty well on the site. It's great seeing Grand Rapids history, especially of a "minority group" and from their perspective.
they're talking about doing a "People's History" series with stories from local Native American communities to the 1968 riots.
Future viewings:
Sunday, January 8 at 6pm
Plymouth UCC
4010 Kalamazoo SE, Grand Rapids
Thursday, January 19 at 6pm
GVSU Campus Allendale, Cook-DeWitt -
There's a crazy clip from an AIDS fundraiser and Lee Van Ameyde slips and says:
"This is the first time that the foundation has used AIDS to fight art at this annual bash."
As people realized what he said in the theatre we slowly started to laugh. -
You can embed the clip just by including the link in the body of your post - it auto embeds.
It also looks like you can buy the DVD for $5. Maybe I will just do a home screening!
Howdy, Stranger!
