SUMMARY:Mama Gloria: In Her Honor
DESCRIPTION:A film screening and community gathering in honor of the late Mama Gloria Allen. \n\n\n\n\n\nLuchina Fisher will screen her film Mama Gloria\, in addition to honoring the life and impact of Gloria Allen\, a Black transgender icon and activist who dedicated her life to Chicago’s trans community. \nMama Gloria (2020) by Luchina Fisher. 1h 16m \nChicago’s Black transgender icon Gloria Allen (1945 – 2022) blazed a trail for trans people like few others before her. Emerging from Chicago’s South Side drag ball culture in the 1960s\, Gloria overcame traumatic violence to become a proud leader in her community. Most famously\, she pioneered a charm school for young transgender people that served as inspiration for the hit play Charm. Luchina Fisher’s empathic and engaging documentary is not only a portrait of a groundbreaking legend\, but also a celebration of unconditional love\, the love Gloria received from her own mother and that she gave to her chosen children.
