We are here. We are Queer & We won't disappear!

Greetings!?


This is Karin Hazé from 75 SHOTS & The Cinema Feast Collection.?I ?hope this finds you well. Given the level of interest in the Anti-Gay Bill in Uganda, and the negative influence it has on other East African countries, like Kenya, I thought I would share some important information and links here in an attempt to mobilize?our community. Until these oppressive regimes cease to attack our civil liberties, we will fight back and transform their hate into our stories to tell, not theirs.

Cinema has become a core aspect of queer culture and a lifeline empowering and healing our global community. There is a sub-culture of courageous and talented creatives living in oppressive regimes making extraordinary films from a queer perspective and we never get to see them. Their lives are constantly at-risk and their freedom of expression is very much in danger. The Cinema Feast Collection is for us to immerse ourselves in a passionate meeting place of solidarity and to raise our voices.

We need to mobilize and come together. Please reach out and support one another with small actions, like sharing.

Thank you for doing this super essential work, Karin. These environments and governments that put so many at risk is criminal.
