SUMMARY:Lecture: Pride & Prejudice 2.0: Diversity\, Visibility and Progress
DESCRIPTION:Why do we celebrate Pride? Join the Brick Store Museum to hear the history of this social movement. The evolution of human society\, with the challenges we have had and continue to face\, requires thinking that is different. New and as yet unknown problems demand novel\, divergent thinking\, at the same time as we struggle to find more inclusivity that allows more input\, more unique ways of looking at the world which ultimately lead to solutions we cannot anticipate by doing otherwise. \n \nThe Pride movement stems from a singular event\, the Stonewall uprising\, where LGBTQ+ people fought back against prejudice\, discrimination\, and violence. Part of the Pride movement that began in the 1970s was a critical examination of the largely invisible contributions of LGBTQ+ people in a wide array of social\, political\, scientific\, and economic pursuits. This short presentation\, followed by a discussion\, will delve into the very human elements of pride and prejudice\, as it presents in social interactions; showcase important LGBTQ+ contributors to think about; and highlight why we should reconsider long-held biases towards LGBTQ+ people from the view of human advancement. \nThe presenter\, Christine Caulfield\, has been a volunteer at Maine Transgender Network for over eight years\, facilitating support groups for transgender individuals over 35\, running workshops and training in a variety of public and professional settings\, and acting as board treasurer. She is a retired high school teacher\, a proud parent and grandparent\, a world traveler\, and ardent fan of history. She welcomes the opportunity for these presentations and discussions. \nAdmission to the lecture is free and open to the public. Donations appreciated to support continued programming. Don’t forget to visit the Museum to add the names of those you love to our Pride Garland\, throughout the month of June! \nPlease RSVP below so the Museum can have an accurate guest count.
