A Lively Lecture with Performance
Some groups teach that LGBT people need to go through change therapy. Ex-Gay programs dot the US with the deceptive promise that Change is Possible. Having spent 17 years and over $30,000 on three different continents attempting to change and suppress his gay orientation, Peterson Toscano presents a lively lecture about the ex-gay movement and the often-tragic outcomes of pursuing such a change.
Interjecting scenes from his one-person comedy Doin' Time in the Homo No Mo Halfway House—How I Survived the Ex-Gay Movement and the most current information about the ex-gay movement, Peterson's interactive presentation leaves his audience informed and better equipped to address false claims of the Ex-Gay Movement. As the co-founder of www.beyondexgay.com, Peterson also reveals the damage that can come to people who pursue to change their orientation and the creative ways ex-gay survivors have reclaimed their lives.
FREE and open to the public
