Click the blue line above. You will find the film and some offensive ads, I’m so sorry but this is the only site I could find the film for free. The best thing to is to enlarge the screen with the two arrows on the right hand corner of the film this will get rid of the ads. This week’s film review assignment is about Harvey Milk who was elected to the County Board of Supervisors in San Francisco. Milk was the first openly gay elected to the board. He would set the stage for others in the LGBTQ community to get elected and set a path for others to be elected across the country. As I mentioned previously, living in Palm Springs we’ve had numerous candidates run and win seats in various political offices. Like many of our other minority groups, the LGBTQ community has begun to increase in population not only in California but around the country. Don’t forget, we will discuss the LGBTQ community and minority community to see how they voted in this year’s election. I’ve mentioned in the past, if you are going to change society in this country, it is more likely to occur through the political process and/or courts. In our Las film on women, we saw how difficult it was for women to get elected. They had to seek financial support, support from men and their good old boy network. So the money factor requires that many people give to a female candidate. This is the same issue for all our groups.

As you watch the movie, remember to look for:

What does it take to run for office? How do you organize your campaign?

How do you secure money for your campaign?

How important are community groups/organizations important to a campaign?

How do you get collective action to push for the vote?

Now that we have been in the election season, what should we be aware of and look for in the coming months?

What do you think the younger generations will handle their interaction with the LGBTQ community?
