The "Out of the Closet and onto the Screen" film series continues Thursday March 29 with showings of of Hand on the Pulse at 7:00 p.m. and A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde at 8:00 p.m., Textor 103.

Hand on the Pulse
Interviews, photos and archival footage tell the story of Joan Nestle, outspoken activist and co-founder of the Lesbian Herstory Archives in New York City.

A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde
A mentor and inspirational force for many, Lorde embraced life and focused her energies to fight for civil justice, women's equality and lesbian and gay rights.

Sponsored by the Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender (LGBT) Education, Outreach, and Services, the film series this year focuses on the theme of heroes and history of the LGBT movement.

Because the history of LGBT people and movements is rarely taught, it is difficult for people -- LGBT and non-LGBT alike -- to learn about these fascinating yet sometimes lost stories. This year’s series will seek to fill in those gaps.

All screenings are free and open to the public.
