Details
When We Rise is a powerful and inspiring dramatization of the fight for LGBT rights in San Francisco from 1972 to 2015. This gripping series explores the numerous organized campaigns that the LGBT community faced, making them one of the most targeted minority groups in the United States during this period. The story revolves around the experiences of four individuals - Cleve Jones, Roma Guy, Diane Jones, and Ken Jones - each focusing on different aspects of the fight for equality.
Cleve Jones becomes heavily involved in the political and legislative battle for gay and LGBT rights. Roma Guy fights for women's rights and safe spaces for women, while also advocating for universal healthcare in San Francisco. Her personal relationship with Diane is a central theme. Diane, a nurse, cares for AIDS patients and longs to have a child as a lesbian. Ken Jones explores the LGBT community's place within organized religion and shares a deep connection with Richard, a child welfare worker in a heterosexual marriage.
This compelling series delves into key events and the LGBT community's reaction to them, including the Equal Rights Amendment movement, the election campaign of openly gay candidate Harvey Milk, the AIDS crisis, and the fight for equal marriage rights. It also touches on the disillusionment with President Bill Clinton's administration and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). The battle over Proposition 8 in California leads to a historic fight at the United States Supreme Court for full civil rights for the LGBT community nationwide.
When We Rise celebrates the triumphs and resilience of the LGBT community, shedding light on their struggles and achievements throughout history.
