My project focuses on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and/or transgender (LGBT) elderly people. Until this project, I never really considered what it could have been like for a lesbian, gay, bisexual, and/or transgender (LGBT) individual in the 40's, 50's, or 60's. I'll bet you never really considered it either.
My background is in health care and long-term care (nursing homes) for the elderly. I began thinking about LGBT elders and health care. I never considered what it might be like if their loved one was hospitalized. Watch this brief video clip (link below) and leave me a comment about how it made you feel.

Hi Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI saw this movie, and was actually thinking of this when you told me about your project. I think it is a very moving piece, and would definitely convey the importance of your project. My only concern is that this is six minutes long, so I don't know if that would be too long for the exhibition. Check with your academic liasion but if they give you the go ahead, then I would definitely use it!
