Divergence Movie Night presents "The End Of Second Class"

Nov 18 , 2008 - 7:00 pm
Etc/GMT-4
Traces the debate on same sex marriage in Canada over the past decade up to
the passage of same sex marriage on July 20, 2005. The story is told from
the perspective of three couples and the lawyers and activists who sought to
uphold the Charter Rights of lesbians and gay men against the opposition of
the Government of Canada, provincial governments and a coalition of
religious opposition.  The End of Second Class presents a powerful polemic
on an issue of social justice and equality which remains controversial
today, and vividly paints the context in which gays and lesbian sought to
overcome a history of discrimination and second class status. 90 minutes Doors 7pm, movie 7:30pm at Club SAW, 67 Nicholas Free admission, $5 suggested donation.     flyer: http://divergencemovienight.com
