Combining eyewitness testimony with newly unearthed archival footage, this powerful documentary takes us inside the campaign that led to a pivotal yet largely unknown moment in the struggle for LGBT equality: the American Psychiatric Association's 1973 decision to remove homosexuality from its list of mental illnesses. Cured reveals how a small group of impassioned activists achieved this unexpected victory.


Join us on Sunday, April 18 at 7:00 PM, when Dr. Dana Beyer, a retired eye surgeon, a public health issues advocate, a former Executive Director of Gender Rights Maryland and a Board member of A Wider Bridge, will discuss the battle to declassify being transgender as a mental disorder.


Underwritten by Riva Gambert & Sam Pitluck in memory of Lee Engel, Z”L and Congregation B’nai Tikvah Social Action Committee.

Co-sponsor: A Wider Bridge.
