FOR LOVE AND FOR LIFE:
THE 1987 MARCH ON WASHINGTON
FOR LESBIAN AND GAY RIGHTS
This exciting one-hour film places the 1987 March on Washington in perspective among the major political events of our times. It recounts how the events were organized, and creates all the immediacy of being there. This exciting presentation explores all six days during which 650,000 lesbians, gay men and their supporters came to Washington, DC and made history. The inaugural display of the Names Project Quilt, the largest civil disobedience ever at the Supreme Court, the first community Wedding and the Harvey Milk Memorial are just some of the events highlighted from this historic March and Rally. The energy and emotions of these events are presented through the speeches and sounds of the March, a comprehensive narration, and hundreds of dramatic images. "For Love and For Life" is both emotionally powerful and enormously entertaining. It has been broadcast on public television and used extensively in classrooms to teach about gay and lesbian history.

WOMEN ORGANIZE!
A film produced by the Union Institute Center for Women & The Women and Organizing Documentation Project, 2000, 32 minutes, directed by JEB
WOMEN ORGANIZE! is an inspirational, half hour video that portrays women organizers across the U.S. who are involved in the global struggles for racial, social, and economic justice. In this video, we meet five women organizers of various backgrounds, peek at the campaigns they wage, and watch as they begin to pick up the tools to document their own transformative work. From working with high schools girls in a low-income neighborhood in Oregon to speaking out for Black lesbians and gays against homophobia or working with Asian immigrant women factory workers in California for decent working conditions, this is an important video that should be used in women’s and ethnic studies classes and community based organizations. A study/discussion guide is available.
