Season two of LESBIAN SEX AND SEXUALITY will once again take an unblinking, comprehensive and provocative ride into a world where lesbian desire isn’t whispered about, but seriously celebrated.

EQUALITY U
In Person: Director Dave O'Brien
Dir. Dave O’Brien, 2008, USA, 90 min.
Winner of the Outfest Special Programming Award for Emerging Talent
In 2006, 33 young adults participated in the Soulforce Equality Ride, a cross-country bus tour that took them to conservative religious and military colleges, allowing them to stand up for LGBT inclusion and equality right at the campus gate. Documenting everything from internal differences over spiritual issues to non-violent resistance to campus cops, EQUALITY U captures a unique protest at a historic tipping point between the forces of oppression and a new generation of outspoken queer youth.
