Let the Fire Burn

Submitted by Jason Olshefsky @ JayceLand.com on Thu, 2014-01-02 18:43

original article: http://jayceland.com/blog/archive/2013/12/08/let-the-fire-burn/

 

I got to see Let the Fire Burn at the Little on November 12. It's been a while, but I did want to give it a bit of a review.

It's an impressive document of the misguided actions of the Philadelphia government and police against the MOVE organization that led to them bombing and burning a house in 1985 containing 13 members, eleven of whom perished. In a way, it's a microcosm of war: both are avoidable, expensive, and deadly acts.

"The Throwaways": Discussion after Screening

Rochester had the honor of screening the film "The Throwaways", which documents the life of Ira McKinley, an ex-felon and homeless man as he attempts to show the viewer "the throwaways" in our society.

What is a queer family?

Submitted by K & W @ QueerFamilyMatters.wordpress.com on Thu, 2013-12-19 19:38

original article: http://queerfamilymatters.wordpress.com/2013/11/03/what-is-a-queer-family/

 

The first blog post is always the…awkwardest. So let’s start with this really basic question: What makes a family queer? What is a queer family?

When we think of LGBT families, we usually think of two moms or two dads. More specifically, we think of two cisgender lesbian moms or two cisgender gay dads. When the acronym “LGBT” is used, the “B” and “T” are often silent. The “Q” isn’t even there. LGBT is often used as a catchall acronym for our communities–it’s pretty common. But LGBT organizations, service agencies, and media outlets often focus primarily on cisgender gay men and lesbian women. That’s also pretty common. There’s nothing wrong with two cis moms or dads and those families could certainly be queer, but these representations are not inclusive of all queer families.

UNMANNED: America's Drone Wars - teaser trailer

 

The documentary, Unmanned: America’s drone war, was released this week.  You can download a copy from the Internet or view it here.  It was powerful and disturbing on an emotional level, and at the same time made a case that the drone strikes benefit nobody except avowed enemies of the United States, and certain corporations who get billion-dollar drone contracts.

Letter to DOJ by Reps. Richmond, Conyers, Nadler, and Scott Calls for Investigation into Louisiana Prisons; Cites Angola 3

Submitted by angola3news on Sat, 2013-07-13 14:17

"The Louisiana DOC has an abysmal history of protecting the rights of its prisoners, and the tragic story of the Angola 3 is a case in point," write US Reps. John Conyers, Jr., Jerrold Nadler, Robert C. “Bobby” Scott, and Cedric Richmond in a letter to the US Justice Department, urging the Attorney General to investigate the use of solitary confinement, and other troubling detention practices, in numerous Louisiana prison facilities, especially LSP-Angola.
