Fundamental DIRECTED BY SHIH-CHIEN CHUI | 2017 | TAIWAN | 7 MIN Having grown up in a conservative household, a young teenager begins to learn that the world isn’t so black and white as he leaves his fundamentalist religion behind. + FEATURE | 7:30PM The Miseducation of Cameron Post Cameron, a closeted senior in high school, is caught by her boyfriend making out with her best friend during prom. The embarrassing revelation results in Cameron being sent away by her conservative family to an isolated religiously based conversion ther- apy camp in the woods. Attempting to get through this ordeal by remaining hidden in the shadows, she finds herself both confronted by the more aggressive campers, who accuse her of thinking she’s better than everyone, and befriended by the two of the most resistant campers, Native American Adam, who was sent to camp by his politician father, and Jane Fonda, a mysterious young woman who, along with Adam, grows marijuana in the neighboring woods and hides her stash inside her prosthetic leg. Based on the book of the same name by Emily M.

There will be a member’s preview and artist talk from 6 – 7 pm on Friday, June 10 with a public reception from 7 – 9 pm. Admission to DiverseWorks is free of charge Pepe’s exhibition in Houston is a commissioned installation that serves as an open meeting space and platform for several events, including a video installation by current MFAH Core Fellow Sondra Perry. With an interest in carving out space within solo exhibitions for young artists, Pepe invited Perry, working in video and performance, to respond to her augmented reinstallation of Put me down Gently, 2015. Each artist worked autonomously, yet their projects were hinged by shared resources, the color blue and an investment in improvisation within institutional frameworks. The exhibition evolved and two installations emerged – tethered to each other by ongoing conversations on craft, class, race, place and screens of projection.

    The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Paul Ryan U.S. Capitol Building, Room S-230 U.S. Capitol Building, Room 232 Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Chuck Schumer The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Hart Senate Office Building, Room 419 U.S. Capitol Building, Room 204 Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Leader McConnell, Leader Schumer, Speaker Ryan, and Leader Pelosi: The undersigned 127 lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) and allied organizations call on Congress to pass a clean Dream Act before the end of this year. Congress has no excuse not to pass the Dream Act of 2017. The bipartisan bill has the support of a majority of Americans,1 including those who identify as Trump supporters.2 Congress has a responsibility to address this issue and to be in solidarity with immigrants by passing the Dream Act without harmful provisions such as increased border or interior enforcement as well as any cuts to other immigration categories, such as refugees, diversity visa lottery recipients, and green card holders. Dreamers are a part of the American family and help make our communities vibrant. Moreover, passing the Dream Act would add a total of $22.7 billion to the United States’ GDP every year; gains that could add up to as much as $1 trillion over the next decade when including the productivity bump that would result from dreamers’ increased educational attainment.3 Under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program (DACA), thousands of LGBTQ people have been able to pursue higher education, improve their economic security, and live securely with their families and in their communities.4 Additionally, DACA has empowered a number of its recipients to come out as LGBTQ to authentically live their lives.
