Maureen,
Check out This is Family: What constitutes a family? How is the typical
American family defined? How has the notion of gay families evolved over the
past decades? Is there such a thing as a typical gay family?
This fascinating and sometimes shocking documentary profiles the diversity
of gay and transgender households in America today. With the aspirations and
diverse ways of life for gay and alternative households changing so quickly,
is society adapting fast enough to keep up with them?

Hi, Maureen
We have a great new one called THE NEW NEIGHBORS. It's a half hour film
about saving a "first suburb" by making racial integration the centerpiece
of Pennsauken, NJ's revitalization. It's one of two films on the same disc
called THE NEW METROPOLIS. www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/nm.html.
Best,
John Hoskyns-Abrahall

I’d like to find some that deal with diverse individuals or communities
coming together in pursuit of a mutual goal or project. I’m open to
documentaries or fiction films—this is for a mediagraphy I need to put
together for our diversity and inclusion week. If possible, I’d like to
list films that show what successful inclusion looks like! Help, listmates!

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
