Hey Gaytors! Come join us this Thursday, March 23rd from 5-7pm in the Rainbow Room (located on the second level of the Reitz Union) for a movie night where we will be watching Pride! Pride is a movie about an unlikely friendship that is forged between a small community of striking miners in Wales and a team of London-based gay-and-lesbian activists who help fight their cause. Along the way, they find that they have more in common with the people of this struggling community than anyone on either side could have expected. We look forward to seeing you there!! 🎬🍿
