Before and After Stonewall films to be shown in Toledo
by Kim Welter
Toledo-Join Equality Toledo, the American Civil Liberties Union and Equality Ohio for two important documentaries about the history of the LGBT rights movement in the United States.
Both screenings will be at the Sanger Branch Library, 3030 West Central Ave. (near Cricket West shopping center) in Toledo, at 6:30 p.m.
Discussions will follow each film.
On Monday, June 11, the film will be Before Stonewall. New York City's Stonewall Inn is regarded by many as the site where gay and lesbian liberation began, since it was at this bar that drag queens
fought back against police on the night of June 27-28, 1969. This documentary uses extensive archival film, movie clips and personal recollections to construct an audiovisual history of the gay community before the Stonewall riots.
On Wednesday, June 27, the second film will be screened. After Stonewall is a documentary and historical retrospective of the gay rights movement from the 1969 Stonewall riots to the present.
For more information about these showings and discussions, please call 419-244-0045 or go to www.equalitytoledo.org.
Kim Welter is the executive director of Equality Toledo.
