Jill Sissel...former NWA Coffeehouse Regulars!

In the 70's and 80's the Nashville Women's Alliance (NWA) hosted regular coffeehouses for the lesbian community and their friends at the First Unitarian Church. It was one of the major social events in the entire community.

For the first of our coffeehouse series, We've asked several of those "regulars" to help us celebrate those years and to let us hear some of the best music Nashville has to offer. We hope former NWA members and everyone who loves music will join us for a wonderful evening of music and friendship.

During the eveing, the Stonewall Mission Church will be holding a Bake Sale to benefit OutCentral. This sell will include some vegan items.

This is the second part in a twelve part series presented by the OutCentral Cultural Center and the Nashville Film Festival. Looking for Langston is a 1989 British black and white film directed by Isaac Julien. It combines authentic archival newsreel footage of Harlem in the 1920s with scripted scenes to produce a non-linear impressionistic story line celebrating black gay identity and desire during the artistic and cultural period known as the Harlem Renaissance in New York. The film is a short, running about 42 minutes. Brother to Brother is a film written and directed by Rodney Evans and released in 2004. The film debuted at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival before playing the gay and lesbian film festival circuit, with a limited theatrical release in late 2004. Art student Perry (Anthony Mackie) befriends an elderly homeless man named Bruce Nugent (Roger Robinson), who turns out to have been an important figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Through recalling his friendships with other important Harlem Renaissance figures Langston Hughes (Daniel Sunjata), Aaron Douglas, Wallace Thurman and Zora Neale Hurston, Bruce chronicles some of the challenges he faced as a young, black, gay writer in the 1920s. Perry discovers that the challenges of homophobia and racism he faces in the early 21st century closely parallel Bruce's.

Sex, Dreams, & Self Control is a wildy hilarious coming-out memoir. It's a fusion of music, spoken word, and standup comedy - like David Sedaris with a guitar on a "sexual and romantic odyssey" (EDGE Los Angeles). This rites of passage tale presents itself as bold and racy, and speaks loudly about sexuality and religion. One guitar. One man. A wild ride.
