Social & Multicultural Foundations of Education Film Night

Come watch an interesting film. It's free and educational!

Dangerous Living: Coming Out in the Developing World is the first documentary to deeply explore the lives of gay and lesbian people in non-western cultures. Traveling to five different continents, we hear the heartbreaking and triumphant stories of gays and lesbians from Egypt, Honduras, Kenya, Thailand and elsewhere, where most occurrences of oppression receive no media coverage at all. By sharing the personal stories coming out of developing nations, Dangerous Living sheds light on an emerging global movement striving to end discrimination and violence against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people.

"A childlike (wo)man is not a (wo)man whose development
has been arrested; on the contrary, (s)he is a (wo)man who
has given (her)self a chance of continuing to develop long
after most adults have muffled themselves in the cocoon of
middle aged habit and convention."

-- Aldous Huxley
