FREE Documentary Screening
Please join the Unitarian Universalist Congregation, the Human Rights Campaign, West Virginia Pride, and Fairness West Virginia for a special screening of the PBS Documentary, “Ask Not”, which examines what it’s like to serve under the military law known as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”
Sgt. Pepe Johnson, a West Virginia native and resident who was discharged under DADT, will lead a discussion and Q&A following the screening.
This event highlights the continuing use of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” military policy to fire competent, fit, and highly-skilled Americans from the U.S. military solely because of their sexual orientation. More than 13,500 men and women have been discharged from the military because of their sexual orientation, including more than 60 Arabic linguists and nearly 800 other service members in critical occupational fields.
