THE U PEOPLE VISIBLE VOICES TOUR – FALL 2009

In October 2009; in response to the current right to marriage movement; the creators of U People alongside a small team of performers and activists will embark on a month long tour of the southern states of America in celebration of National Coming Out Month. This pilgrimage will target a sampling of the larger unheard queer voice in this country in hopes to shine a light on the continuing struggle around a myriad of issues that challenge queer equality today. There will be a series of screenings and companion talk-back sessions associated with the film to take place in both public and private institutions in addition to a lecture series on multiple college campuses. More information can be found here.

COLLEGIATE VOICES SIMULCAST

Oct 3rd, 2009, we are inviting colleges from around the country to simulcast what will be an important event within the growing history of LGBT rights in this country. On this date U People will be the first LGBT focused film screened at the Civil Right Museum in Memphis, TN. This institution stands at same spot in which Martin Luther King lost his life. We are organizing a panel of distinguished academic, political and religious pundits, including the U People directors to discuss the progression and further development of LGBT rights and understanding within the south.
