The Lavender Scare

With the United States gripped in the panic of the Cold War, President Dwight D. Eisenhower deems homosexuals to be "security risks" and orders the immediate firing of any government employee discovered to be gay or lesbian. It triggers a vicious witch hunt that lasts for forty years and ruins thousands of lives, while thrusting an unlikely hero into the forefront of what would become the modern LGBT rights movement.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2022, 7:30 p.m.
ROBINSON THEATER, BUILDING 14A / ROOM 1314

MOTH (Movies On The House) and the UNF LGBTQ Center present The Lavender Scare. Registration is required for this event. It is the first documentary film to tell the little-known story of an unrelenting campaign by the federal government to identify and fire all employees suspected of being homosexual. Snacks will be provided.
