In our ‘liberal’ democratic society, gay and lesbian people still face prejudice and inequality.
Harvey Milk was the first elected US politician produced by the Gay Liberation Movement. Assassinated in 1978, he still inspires disenfranchised people worldwide.
Watch this Oscar-winning documentary that portrays a community (San Francisco’s historic Castro district in the 1970s) which organised to empower someone who genuinely represented them.
