Descriere

In 1977, the Mariposa Film Group produced a groundbreaking documentary that profiled the lives of 26 ordinary gay men and lesbians. Broadcast widely in cinemas and on television, Word is Out appeared soon after Anita Bryant launched her anti-gay `Save Our Children' campaign, offering an important counter-image to the homophobic images that Bryant and others were promulgating. Interviewees cover a broad spectrum and include writer Elsa Gidlow and civil rights leader Harry Hay. Word is Out provides an essential guide to the significant documentary, still relevant today.

His research focuses on gay and lesbian activist and experimental filmmaking of the late 1970s, in the context of the rise of the religious right and the channeling of gay and lesbian politics into a liberal, rights-based agenda. He also creates an ongoing video series with Chris Vargas, entitled Falling in Love...with Chris and Greg.
