Gener'asian Y

Thursday Evenings at the Museum

Gener’asian Y is a video documentary on the lives of Asian and Pacific Islander queer youth in Los Angeles. Through interviews, the video explores discrimination, love, sex, HIV/AIDS, and empowerment through the eyes of a Pilipina American lesbian artist/musician, a 22-year-old Vietnamese gay fashion designer, a transgendered political activist from South Central L.A., and a Japanese beauty queen. These pre-Generation Xers explore their life stories about “coming out” and being young and Asian Pacific Islander in today’s society. Funded by the Asian Pacific AIDS Intervention Team’s youth program. Free. Reservations suggested. Limited seating.
