Hirschfield First Thursday Films: Mutt

Hirschfield is back with a unique once-a-month event every first Thursday. Join us outside Dana to celebrate with pizza at 6:30 PM.

Feña, a young trans guy bustling through life in New York City, is afflicted with an incessantly challenging day that resurrects ghosts from his past. Laundromats, subway turnstiles, and airport transfers are the hectic background to this emotional drama that overlaps past, present, and future.

Blood Bound: On Period Poverty

Poverty infringes on personal autonomy in a myriad of ways. Having grown up homeless and largely dependent on the resources of social equity NGO’s, Treasure Brooks took issue with the limited menstrual products offered to people in need. In her talk “Blood Bound,” Brooks will reflect on her early work as a menstruation activist and creator of “Operation T.O.M.,” a grassroots organization designed to disseminate high quality menstruation products to houseless gender marginalized people.
