Paris is Burning
November 15, 2019 - 6:30pm to 10:00pm
"This documentary focuses on drag queens living in New York City and their "house" culture, which provides a sense of community and support for the flamboyant and often socially shunned performers. Groups from each house compete in elaborate balls that take cues from the world of fashion. Also touching on issues of racism and poverty, the film features interviews with a number of renowned drag queens, including Willi Ninja, Pepper LaBeija and Dorian Corey."
Come join Queer Advocacy Coalition, Association of Black Social Work Students, Latinx Coalition, Black Radical Healing Pathways, and Common Roots in viewing this provocative film.
Refreshments will be served.
