There's a wonderful documentary about gay men adopting children called "Daddy 
and Papa" that just aired on PBS; 

"The Education of Shelby Knox" also recently aired on PBS--a documentary about 
a young woman's fight for comprehensive sex education in her public school 
(which provides abstinence only education);

"Defending Our Lives" is a powerful documentary about domestic violence.  It 
features interviews with four of the Framingham 8, who were imprisoned for 
killing men who had abused them;

"Before Stonewall" and "After Stonewall" about lesbian and gay activism;

"Baby Love" about teen mothers;

"Tying the Knot" about the fight for gay marriage rights (it includes some 
nice historical background on marriage)
