Join the Central Iowa DSA Queer Liberation Working Group for a screening of The Lavender Scare, a powerful documentary exposing the U.S. government's purge of LGBTQ+ workers during the Cold War. This film sheds light on the intersection of queer liberation and labor rights, offering critical lessons for today’s struggles.

After the screening, we’ll hold a discussion on how these historical injustices connect to ongoing fights for justice and equality. Come for the film, stay for community and conversation! All are welcome.
