CONTENT WARNING:
The lives of the LGBT youth in “A Road to Home” typify the experience of the 300,000 homeless youth on American streets every night, 40% of them LGBT. In the course of their journeys, four of the kids get aid from the Ali Forney Center, a program devoted solely to homeless LGBT youth. The struggle of its founder Carl Siciliano to keep its programs alive mirrors the journeys of the kids themselves. What the film reveals is not only the dangers, the fears, the lonely anxiety of being homeless, but also the resulting wounds to the heart that must be healed. The 6 characters in this film are determined that their current traumas will not define them for the rest of their lives.
This film is presented in English with English subtitles.

Unfolding Beauty

Sat, Apr 09 @ 2:00 pm
Harvard Law School Wasserstein Hall
in person
A genderqueer ugly duckling emerges from the shell of oppression and heartbreak into a sparkling fairytale ​SWANICORN full of hope. It’s back to basics in ​SEXUALITY 101: ​IDENTITY as two young women insolently define their own labels. The magnetic moments of ​BEING SEEN BEING HOME fully affirm a fat femme as the heavenly body that she is. A young woman courageously embraces her perceived flaws ​IN HER EYES. The poetic affirmation of ​#BLACKWOMENSLIVESMATTER shows us how to transform systemic devaluation. An offering under the ​SUNGAZE sparks renewal and growth. A queer Black man on a spiritual journey discovers his path to being ​PROUD & FAITHFUL. ​AU-KNAPPTURAL embraces the beauty that is bald heads and Black hair. A new ​HER/CUT leads to an awkward encounter between old friends. A young queer Asian-American writes ​A LETTER TO MY FATHER within the space of their family restaurant. ​MAMITIS makes a long journey home after years as an immigrant. A bisexual transgender Asian woman celebrates ​JASMINE’S JUBILEE and life’s triumphs. Based on the Samoan word for love ​HIS VISION: PROJECT ALOFA embraces all without judgement. For a trio of queer friends, the expansive magnitude of ​FINDING EACH OTHER draws them into activist community. An Afro-Latina queer couple explores ​DE COLORES, OUR LIVES at the intersection of cultural, sexual and racial identity.
