When We Rise

The new limited mini-series on ABC which started last night chronicles the rise of the Gay rights movement.  Based on a book by activist Cleve Jones, and written by Oscar winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black,  it was a welcome surprise that the network channel had the guts to air this.  With a skilled and accomplished cast, starring Guy Pearce as the elder Mr Jones, it is often graphic and sexual. It was a powerful portrayal of the movement and the terrible struggles we had to overcome.  And now we are in fear of losing it all because of some reality TV asshole with nothing but prejudice and hatred in his heart and soul.

I recommend this show as a must watch for EVERYONE !    (plus, it has some beautiful boys) . It will rip your heart out and educate you at the same time. 

Also starring,  Mary Louise Parker, Rachel Griffiths, Whoppie Goldberg, Rosie O'Donnel
