Description: The shifting perspective on queer rights 1900-present day. Interviews with members of society and our community. Our video was inspired by the work in the previous videos from the North & West QC groups. We wanted to question one another about LGBTQ human rights, and whether things have really changed for LGBTQ community, but do it in a fun way--- using puppets that we made to represent ourselves and/or other people.We wanted to know whether "It Gets Better." How does it get better? Who can we turn to? Are our rights being upheld? Are there still human rights issues that have not been addressed here in Canada? What about rights for Trans identified folks? What about the bullying, fear, and depression that so many LGBTQ youth are facing in their schools, in their homes, with peers, and in society? Why is the media focused on gay teen suicides, but fail to provide us with the necessary positive role models and equal representation in mainstream media?

Description: This week's video response is based on the idea that in 2011 equality is still unresolved despite of the previous achievements. We still face inequality in our daily lives at school at work, in our families and in our own LGBTT2 community. We still need to continue working towards making space for us and the ones that don't fit into the dominant models.
