This weekend marked the 18th annual “Creating Change” conference sponsored by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. Among other things, the conference included a screening of “In My Shoes,” a half-hour movie produced by middle and high school-aged members of COLAGE, about their experiences as children of same-sex parents. I haven’t seen the film myself, but it’s won at least one film-festival award and is available for purchase through COLAGE. (There are no direct online sales, but you can download a form to mail or fax. Note also that although I get a small referral fee from some of the product links on this page, I’m not getting one here. It just seems a worthy cause.)
Inside Bay Area has a brief article on the conference, also focusing on how the gay-rights struggle affects children. Nothing new to Mombian readers, I’m sure, but nice to see the coverage.
