SUMMARY:Mama Gloria: The Story of Legendary Trans Activist\, Gloria Allen
DESCRIPTION:Special Fundraiser for Safe Schools Desert Cities \n \nUnitarian Universalist Church of the Desert\npresents… \n \nBUY TICKETS ONLINE HERE \n“THE DOCUMENTARY IS FRONT-LOADED WITH LOVE\, FORGIVENESS\, TOLERANCE\, AND MORE HIDDEN HISTORY THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY TAKE IN ALL AT ONCE. IT’S A REAL STANDOUT STORY BOTH BECAUSE THE SUBJECT IS SO FASCINATING AND THE REVELATIONS ABOUT CHICAGO ARE ENDLESS.” \nTHIRD COAST REVIEW \nJoin UUCOD and the Coachella Valley LGBTQ community in this online event\nSaturday May 15 @ 2 – 4 pm\nTickets $10 – Additional Donations Accepted\nLuchina Fisher and Mama Gloria will lead a discussion following the film \nDirector’s Statement \nI was introduced to Gloria because she was looking for someone to help her write her memoir. But after meeting her\, I knew that her story would speak to people\, because it spoke to me. As a Black woman filmmaker raising a biracial transgen­der daughter\, I see Gloria’s story through a unique lens. For me\, it’s personal and it’s urgent. One day while I was filming Gloria in Chicago\, my daughter sent me a text say­ing that her life was “half way done.” Gia had read online that the average life expectan­cy for a Black trans woman in Washington D.C.\, was 32. It was at that moment that I truly understood why I am making this film. It’s a gift that I want to show my daughter and other young trans people — so they can imagine themselves growing old and having a long\, mean­ingful life. ~ Luchina Fisher \nMama Gloria – A Documentary Film\nDirected by Luchina Fisher \n \nSynopsis \nMama Gloria is a feature documentary about Gloria Allen\, a trailblazing 74-year-old Black transgender activist who started a charm school for homeless trans youth and is now aging with joy and grace. It is the story of a mother’s love — the love that Gloria’s mother had for her and the love that Gloria has for her chosen children. And it is fueled by the love that filmmaker Luchina Fisher has for her teenage transgender daughter\, Gia. \nAt a time when Black transgender women face escalating violence and make up the majority of transgender people murdered each year\, Gloria’s story is an inspiring portrait of aging seldom seen. \n

SUMMARY:Spirit Day 2019
DESCRIPTION:Millions go purple on Spirit Day in a stand against bullying and to show their support for lesbian\, gay\, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. Observed annually since 2010\, individuals\, schools\, organizations\, corporations\, and public figures wear purple\, which symbolizes ‘spirit’on the rainbow flag. \n \nabout #spiritday\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is Spirit Day?\nSpirit Day began in 2010 as a way to show support for LGBT youth and take a stand against bullying.  Following a string of high-profile suicide deaths of gay teens in 2010\, GLAAD worked to involve millions of teachers\, workplaces\, celebrities\, media outlets and students in going purple on social media or wearing purple\, a color that symbolizes spirit on the rainbow flag.  Spirit Day now occurs every year on the third Thursday in October\, during National Bullying Prevention Month\, and has become the most visible day of support for LGBT youth. \nThis year GLAAD will celebrate Spirit Day – where we will all stand together; communities\, corporations\, celebrities\, landmarks\, faith groups\, sports leagues\, schools and so much more\, to send a message of solidarity and acceptance to LGBT youth. \nWhere did the idea come from?\nAn amazing teenager wanted to remember those young people who lost their lives to suicide and to take a stand against bullying. \nWho participates?\nStudents\, schools\, organizations\, corporations\, media professionals\, celebrities\, parents and many more. Everyone from Oprah to Cher to Facebook and MTV have gone purple for Spirit Day. Even the White House joined the cause! \nHow do I get involved?\nIt’s easy! The first step – pledge to go purple now! The official GLAAD Presents #SpiritDay campaign kicks off in September with new and exciting ways to participate\, spread the word and stand up against bullying!

SUMMARY:Coming Out Day (National Event) - 2019
DESCRIPTION:National Coming Out Day (NCOD) is an annual LGBTQawareness day observed on October 11.  Founded in the United States in 1988\, the initial idea was grounded in the feminist and gay liberation spirit of the personal being political\, and the emphasis on the most basic form of activism being coming out to family\, friends and colleagues\, and living life as an openly lesbian or gay person.  The foundational belief is that homophobia thrives in an atmosphere of silence and ignorance\, and that once people know that they have loved ones who are lesbian or gay\, they are far less likely to maintain homophobic or oppressive views. \nIn more recent years\, the idea of the “Lesbian and Gay Community” has been largely subsumed into the idea of the LGBT community\, and the idea of “coming out” expanded to not only include the voluntary self-disclosure of a lesbian\, gay\, or bisexual sexual orientation\, but also transgender\, genderqueer\, or other non-mainstream gender identity.

SUMMARY:Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast - 2019
DESCRIPTION:Details to be announced \n  \nABOUT HARVEY MILK\nWhen he was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977\, Harvey Milk (1930- 1978) became one of the first openly gay men to be elected to political office in the United States. On election night\, Harvey Milk reminded his supporters: “This is not my victory – it’s yours. If a gay man can win\, it proves that there is hope for all minorities who are willing to fight.” He was assassinated (along with Mayor George Moscone) on November 27\, 1978\, only eleven months after taking office. Although he did not live to see his dreams fulfilled\, the example of his life and leadership has made him an important national symbol for the struggle for human rights. \nProceeds benefit Coachella Valley youth through Gay-Straight Alliance clubs and LGBT youth related programs. \n

SUMMARY:Day of Silence - 2019

SUMMARY:Spirit Day 2018
DESCRIPTION:Millions go purple on Spirit Day in a stand against bullying and to show their support for lesbian\, gay\, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. Observed annually since 2010\, individuals\, schools\, organizations\, corporations\, and public figures wear purple\, which symbolizes ‘spirit’on the rainbow flag. \nCheck out photos and videos from last year’s Spirit Day! \n \nabout #spiritday\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is Spirit Day?\nSpirit Day began in 2010 as a way to show support for LGBT youth and take a stand against bullying.  Following a string of high-profile suicide deaths of gay teens in 2010\, GLAAD worked to involve millions of teachers\, workplaces\, celebrities\, media outlets and students in going purple on social media or wearing purple\, a color that symbolizes spirit on the rainbow flag.  Spirit Day now occurs every year on the third Thursday in October\, during National Bullying Prevention Month\, and has become the most visible day of support for LGBT youth. \nThis year GLAAD will celebrate Spirit Day on October 16 where we will all stand together; communities\, corporations\, celebrities\, landmarks\, faith groups\, sports leagues\, schools and so much more\, to send a message of solidarity and acceptance to LGBT youth. \nWhere did the idea come from?\nAn amazing teenager wanted to remember those young people who lost their lives to suicide and to take a stand against bullying. \nWho participates?\nStudents\, schools\, organizations\, corporations\, media professionals\, celebrities\, parents and many more. Everyone from Oprah to Cher to Facebook and MTV have gone purple for Spirit Day. Even the White House joined the cause! \nHow do I get involved?\nIt’s easy! The first step – pledge to go purple now! The official GLAAD Presents #SpiritDay campaign kicks off in September with new and exciting ways to participate\, spread the word and stand up against bullying!

SUMMARY:Coming Out Day (National Event) - 2018
DESCRIPTION:National Coming Out Day (NCOD) is an annual LGBTQawareness day observed on October 11.  Founded in the United States in 1988\, the initial idea was grounded in the feminist and gay liberation spirit of the personal being political\, and the emphasis on the most basic form of activism being coming out to family\, friends and colleagues\, and living life as an openly lesbian or gay person.  The foundational belief is that homophobia thrives in an atmosphere of silence and ignorance\, and that once people know that they have loved ones who are lesbian or gay\, they are far less likely to maintain homophobic or oppressive views. \nIn more recent years\, the idea of the “Lesbian and Gay Community” has been largely subsumed into the idea of the LGBT community\, and the idea of “coming out” expanded to not only include the voluntary self-disclosure of a lesbian\, gay\, or bisexual sexual orientation\, but also transgender\, genderqueer\, or other non-mainstream gender identity.

SUMMARY:Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast - 2018
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Greater Palm Springs Pride\, Equality California and the Coachella Valley Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast Coalition \nFriday\, May 18\, 2018 \n9:30-11:00 am (Registration begins at 8:45am\, Program begins at 9:30am sharp) \nPalm Springs Convention Center\, 277 N. Avenida Caballeros \nOpen to all – this event is for individuals\, businesses\, interfaith groups\, civic officials and nonprofit organizations. \n  \nABOUT HARVEY MILK\nWhen he was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977\, Harvey Milk (1930- 1978) became one of the first openly gay men to be elected to political office in the United States. On election night\, Harvey Milk reminded his supporters: “This is not my victory – it’s yours. If a gay man can win\, it proves that there is hope for all minorities who are willing to fight.” He was assassinated (along with Mayor George Moscone) on November 27\, 1978\, only eleven months after taking office. Although he did not live to see his dreams fulfilled\, the example of his life and leadership has made him an important national symbol for the struggle for human rights. \nProceeds benefit Coachella Valley youth through Gay-Straight Alliance clubs and LGBT youth related programs. \n
