[Mpls] Anti-gay Phelps Planning to be in MPLS tonight and Sun. to Protest Film/Pastor

[David Strand]

Hello all, an individual from Minnesota Film Arts sent
out an email concerned about Phelps' Westboro Baptist
Church planned protests outside showings of Call Me
Malcolm on Saturday Night.

An appropriate response might be just to show up
tonight to see the film or make a donation to a
transgender or transgender related nonprofit based on
the length of time of the protest.

Here is some info on the film followed by a link and
some info on the protest followed by a link of
Westboro Baptists website(I'd reccomend not going
there unless you really feel the need or to clarify
information).

Malcolm will be present at the first screening of
Call Me Malcolm/ Call Me Malcolm is the story of a 27
year-old transgender seminary student and his struggle
with faith, love and gender identity. In 1977, a boy
is born in a girl's body. After several years of
self-doubt and confusion, the boy learns that he is
transgendered, and finally takes the necessary steps
to externally live in the gender he'd always felt. The
first of is steps was taking on his new name: Malcolm.
He begins a road trip across American from a small
town outside Denver.
