Being Gay: Coming Out in the 21st Century

Quantity in Basket: none
| | In the early part of the 20th century, homosexuality was considered a crime. By the 1950s, society regarded it as a form of mental illness. Today, while gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenders are no longer forced to hide their sexual orientation, there is still prejudice and discrimination which can make coming out a difficult decision. And then there are always internal pressures as well.
This program presents the accounts and stories of people who have recently taken the step of coming out. Interviewees and experts discuss the benefits of this important transition by examining the six stages of coming to terms with one’s sexual identity. They also look at the dangers of running away from sexual self-acceptance—such as alcoholism, drug abuse, and suicide—and how finding support can greatly assist the process.
A Cambridge Educational Production. The DVD version has on-demand English subtitles and can be viewed using a DVD player or computer DVD-ROM drive.

| | Josh Keogh was only 15 when his dad died of liver cancer. This program, filmed over the course of the year following his father’s death, candidly illustrates what it’s like for a teenager to deal with the loss of a parent. Josh’s feelings of blame, anger, and isolation, so typical to the grieving process, are deftly captured, as is the poignancy of those first holidays and special times celebrated in the absence of a loved one. This insightful documentary is an indispensable tool for opening a dialogue on dying and grief—and for helping students move forward after a death in the family. Some language may be offensive.
