Pride vs Prejudice Film Screening in Red Deer
Join us this Pride Month for a special screening of Pride vs. Prejudice: The Delwin Vriend Story — the award-winning documentary directed by Darrin Hagen that tells the true story of one man’s fight for equality and the landmark Supreme Court decision that changed Canada forever.
This screening celebrates the resilience and contributions of our local 2SLGBTQI+ community and shows how one person’s courage can drive national change.
The Community Foundation is proud to partner with the Queer Neighbours Society of Red Deer, the Red Deer Native Friendship Society, and the Red Deer Public Library to present this screening.
This event is also presented in partnership with Edmonton Community Foundation (ECF) and the Edmonton Queer History Project (EQHP) and aims to honour the contributions of our local 2SLGBTQI+ community while fostering meaningful conversations about equity, human rights, and inclusion.
