Book Giveaway: Gringa: A Contradictory Girlhood

It’s time for a book giveaway! I’m very pleased to offer a copy of Gringa: A Contradictory Girlhood, writer Melissa Hart’s memoir of growing up in the 1970’s separated from her mother, who lost custody of her children after she divorced their father and came out as a lesbian. (More about it in my 2009 Review of LGBTQ Family Books.)

The book will go to the first commenter who leaves the correct answer to the question:

Name the documentary that Hart appeared in to talk about her mother’s and her experiences in the 1970’s with homophobia.

If you don’t get it, I’ll be giving away another copy tomorrow (at a different time of day), so you can try again.
