  TODAYS GAY & LESBIAN EVENTS

Thursday December 12th

The Boys Who Said No
6:00pm - 9:00pm

The work-in-progress story of the men who resisted the draft and those who supported them. Nearly 60 years ago, against the background of the quiet conformity of the 1950s, in the face of a seemingly senseless war in a country they had never heard of, a small group of young men refused to register or serve in the U.S. Army. As we confront the resurgence of militarism, bigotry and nativism today, their story reminds us of what has always been best in our history - the fight against tyranny and hatred - and reminds us of what is possible when we act. Thursday, December 12, 2019 Directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Judith Ehrlich, The Boys Who Said NO! will tell for the first time the inspiring story and impact of the Vietnam War draft resistance movement. If you wish to donate visit donate: boyswhosaidno.com/support Admission free. Join us. Preview the film. And if you believe, as we do, that it's important, please donate to its completion.
