The award-winning film about teaching LGBT inclusion in schools, It’s STILL Elementary, is having its national television premiere this Saturday, March 7, on LOGO at 8 p.m. EST.
I interviewed Academy Award-winning director Debra Chasnoff in 2007 about the film. She also spoke about her film That’s a Family, which caused a brouhaha in Evesham, New Jersey when the school district decided to exclude it from the curriculum because a few parents complained that it included gay and lesbian families. (Just to clarify: That’s a Family is aimed at elementary school kids. It’s STILL Elementary is about elementary education, but aimed at educators and parents.)
Definitely worth catching, if you can.
