"Out In the Night" Screening at BMCC, moderated by Safe OUTside the System
Out in the Night, directed by blair dorosh-walther, is a documentary about four young African American lesbians convicted for defending themselves in an assault in Greenwich Village in 2006. This film premiered in 2014, has won close to a dozen awards, and opened up the 28th season of POV on PBS this summer.
This event will include a post-screening dialogue between the audience, and three of the film’s subjects, Terrain Dandridge, Patreese Johnson and Renata Hill. Members of the Audre Lorde Project’s Safe Outside the System (SOS) program will moderate the discussion

Interpreting for Social Justice Training!
Interpreter Training
ALP’s Annual Interpreter Training is a part of a larger vision of Language Justice in Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two Spirit, Trans and Gender Non-Conforming (LGBTSTGNC) Immigrant of Color communities. This Interpreter Training seeks to provide opportunities for LGBTSTGNC Immigrants of Color who are already informal community interpreters to:
- gain greater skills in interpretation.
- learn resources and strategies to use interpretation to generate income.
- better understand how to make our community spaces more accessible.
- share knowledge about health, social and community resources.
- share resources on translating health, sexuality and gender issues.
