Green On Thursdays: The Crusade Against Gay Bashing

10th Annual Boston Gay & Lesbian Film/Video Festival

A look at gay-bashing in America and the efforts that are necessary to stop it. The filmmakers spent 3 years documenting violence against the gay community that seldom made the mainstream media.
Used as a code for gay identification during more homophobic times, the wearing of green on Thursdays has since become a symbol of the oppression against gay people by those who continue to place credence in such outdated stigmatizers when searching for gays to bash. This film examines the culture of violence among homophobes and highlights the work of the Pink Angels, a Chicago community activist group. “A distressing, compassionate, and extremely valuable film.” — LA Weekly
