Fireside Chat with Robert Joseph Greene | February 18, 2014

2/3/2014

0 Comments

 
Robert Joseph Greene, The Gay Icon Classics of the World
Piano Lounge, Green College, UBC
February 18th  8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Admission: FREE

Robert Joseph Greene embarked on a journey to find gay love stories from different cultures that were suppressed due to homophobia.  Greene thought that his love stories would show the world that the LGBT Community exists in every culture. What he didn’t expect was that his simple love stories would lead to an arrest of an activist for reading “gay propaganda”in front of a children’s library.

Greene has been at the forefront of fighting Russia’s “Anti-Gay Propaganda” laws and answers questions as to why the Olympics is the perfect venue for bringing awareness to injustices from human rights to fairness in sports.

Pflag Vancouver acknowledges that our work spans many Territories and Treaty areas and that our meetings are held on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are with us today, to those who have gone before us, and for the youth that inspire us. We recognize the land as an act of Reconciliation, as recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) 94 Calls to Action, and of gratitude to those whose territory we reside on, work on or are visiting.
