Anyone Remember Zach Stark?

The documentary "This is what Love in Action Looks Like," was made about him.
The producers are trying to raise money.
"we still need to raise funds to cover licensing for music and TV footage, fees for entry into film festivals and money to cover some of the editing costs." --Peterson Toscano

Thanks so much for posting this. I love the story of a grass-roots movement generated electronically! I wasn't aware of the film. Hard enough to make a film, but the distribution must be nightmarish. Now I'm trying to think of a way to get my campus Pride Alliance to fund a screening, or perhaps make a donation. This would fit so nicely with other recent docmentaries like Camp Out or For the Bible Tells Me So.

Cheers,
Lee

This is terrific, Angel. And your oldest sure looks fired up!

I do a multimedia series within my social problems/social change classes on changemakers, and even the most callow of my students are helpless to ignore the inspiration of fellow young folks. Also, I love how this local issue is wending its way up the scale to make national and international impact. Really something special! I'm grateful for the head's up.
