Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , ,

As part of P Town’s Summer of Love and Marriage, queerguru gets to talk to the leading gay activist Evan Wolfson known to many simply as ‘the marriage guy’. Wolfson  is the founder and president of Freedom to Marry, a group that became a major driving force same-sex marriage in the United States. He is the visionary who started work on this matter of equality almost four decades ago, and now part of the story  of how he successfully led the fight, is documented in a new film The Freedom to Marry by Eddie Rosenstein

On the eve of the documentary’s digital launch on June 6th 2017, Wolfson talked about how the battle for same-sex marriage maybe over in the US, there are still too many countries around the globe where we still need to heed the fight, plus there is also the question of our community joining the struggle to seize our own country back.

The interview via Facebook was filmed by Roger Walker-Dack for “queerguru reports’ on PTV’s Channel 99.

Evelyn Markus warns us that Never Again is Now

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , ,

 

Queerguru talks with EVELYN MARKUS a Dutch Jewish lesbian whose parents survived the Holocaust and so concerned about the rise of anti-semitism in Holland, moved to the US with her partner is Rosa in 2004 only to discover the situation was no better there.

She documented her journey in her first ever film NEVER AGAIN IS NOW a powerful story that details the changing landscape that now threatens the very security of Jewish communities around the globe.  Markus points about the similarity of how people never ever believed that the Nazis in the 1930’s and 1940’s would reek genocide to the present climate when people refuse to believe all the warning signs.

The documentary is now available on Amazon Prime Video and we believe it should be compulsory viewing for all.  Markus has also established a Blog   Join Never Again Is Now for people who want to get involved in the conversation about keeping us all  safe in the future.

Filmmaker COREY SHERMAN talks about his debut feature BIG BOYS on the eve of its US Premiere at WICKED QUEER

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , ,

 

On the eve of the US Premiere of BIG BOYS at Wicked Queer, Boston’s LGBTQ Film Festival, we catch up with the film’s writer/director Corey Sherman. This feature film debut of his is a heart-string-pulling coming-of-age about unrequited love with a difference. Jamie, the protagonist ( a breakthrough performance from 14-year-old Isaac Krasner) is not the conventional well-turned-out teen which not only gives the story a real edge but makes it undeniably compelling and a sheer joy to watch
