Daniel
Radcliffe, the 20-year-old British actor who has risen to fame in
recent years playing Harry Potter in the successful film series based
on the best-selling novels, is an avid and generous supporter of gay

[Outlet] : Thursday Movie Night
THE DO TELL PROJECT: Film Screening & Discussion
|
|
6-8pm, Thursday, August 20th @ CHAC
(Movie Night is every other Thursday)
"What is Do Tell? Do Tell is a project of the Women of Color Resource Center
that brings together women of color and LGBTQ veterans for a four-day
leadership retreat, where they can begin to share their stories and
experiences through Digital Storytelling.
There are over 200,000 women serving in the military today and almost half of those are women of color.
A Do Tell screening is...
- an important way to spread the word about the real impacts of policies like Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
- a
way to directly support WCRC's work to build a new kind of leadership,
where the women most affected by policies have a voice in changing
them.
- an effective way to get new people engaged and involved in making change."
Allies are welcome. Snacks
and drinks will be provided.
