Presented By: University Students Against Rape/Take Back The Night (USAR/TBTN)
The Stroll Movie Screening
Join us for a screening of The Stroll followed by a panel discussion with director Kristen Lovell and LGBTQ+ Activists Jey’nce Poindexter and Nicole Denson
When Director Kristen Lovell moved to New York City in the 1990s and began to transition, she was fired from her job. With so few options to earn money to survive, Kristen, like many transgender women of color during this era, began sex work in an area known as “The Stroll” in the Meatpacking District of lower Manhattan, where trans women congregated and forged a deep camaraderie to protect each other from harassment and violence.
Reuniting her sisters to tell this essential New York story from their first-hand experiences, Kristen’s intimate narration and interviews bring an astonishing array of archival material of bygone New York from the 1970s through the early 2000s to life.
Please note – Mature content, sexual imagery and sexual violence. No one under 17 admitted.
