About this Event
234 W. Hancock Ave, Athens, GA 30601
Join the Walter J. Brown Media Archives and Peabody Awards Collection for a screening of "Love Free or Die" at Ciné Athens. Following the screening, Bishop Gene and Director Macky Alston will discuss the film and answer questions from the audience. This event is free and open to the public; however, tickets are required. About the film: “Love Free or Die” is about a man whose two defining passions are in direct conflict: his love for God and for his partner Mark. Gene Robinson is the first openly gay person to become a bishop in the historic traditions of Christendom. His consecration in 2003, to which he wore a bullet-proof vest, caused an international stir. The film follows Robinson from small-town churches in the New Hampshire North Country to Washington’s Lincoln Memorial to London’s Lambeth Palace, as he calls for all to stand for equality – inspiring bishops, priests and ordinary folk to come out from the shadows and change history.
