Pariah: LGBT+ Film Screening and Discussion (open to all students & staff!)

To raise awareness of LGBT+ people and history this LGBT History Month, we're hosting a film and discussion evening on Thursday 17th February!

Join us in the Haven on Bay Campus to watch American drama film Pariah (2011), that tells the story of Alike (Adepero Oduye), a 17-year-old Black teenager embracing her identity as a lesbian. After the showing, we will start the discussion with some general reflections on how people found the film and move on to explore the ideas within it. 

All students and staff welcome. Free drinks and snacks will be provided 🙂
