Celebrating Harvey Milk on his 93rd Birthday

 

 

In honor of the visionary civil and human rights leader Harvey Milk’s 93rd birthday, enjoy another screening of EXECUTION OF JUSTICE by Emily Mann.

Despite the hostility towards the LGBTQ+ community at the time, Harvey Milk was unapologetic about his sexuality, running as the first openly gay candidate for public office in 1973. After finally winning a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977, Milk was a fierce advocate for safe neighborhoods centered around public services like libraries and community policing. PCTC honors Milk’s legacy through our ongoing partnership with Harvey Milk High School.
