Join Me Thursday, July 27th for a FAIR Event
A panel discussion about the documentary No Way Back, 8PM EST online
Join FAIR in Medicine for a discussion of the movie NO WAY BACK: The Reality of Gender-Affirming Care led by Lisa Selin Davis author, independent journalist, and FAIR Advisor, plus film producer Stephanie Winn and artist, writer and detransitioner Laura Becker. What do these five patient stories tell us about gender health care and medical ethics? Why did AMC Theaters cancel a special viewing on June 21st?
More about the movie: This "nuanced, compassionate, deeply researched and mild-mannered" documentary features five young people discussing the medical care they received for gender dysphoria, and how they subsequently realized they were given the wrong treatment. Twelve experts in pediatrics, mental health, sociology, and endocrinology with decades of clinical practice (including an Oxford professor) examine the pros and cons of the current practices. Watch the movie trailer: NO WAY BACK: The Reality of Gender-Affirming Care (formerly Affirmation Generation) 2 minute trailer.

If there is a recording available to registrants, then I will definitely watch it as well...
Thanks so much for organizing this 🙏
I'm disappointed that I won't be around for this (although happy I will be at the beach with my family and my trans-identified daughter will spend time with her cousins instead of ruminating!), but I have a question. Has anyone contacted Firehouse Theatre, located in downtown Manhattan? It screens documentaries. It's been open for less than a year. It's affiliated with DCTV (Downtown Community Television), which I know nothing about, other than that they started in 1972 and they seem like they want to tell diverse stories, so maybe they would have an open mind about this and maybe they would be willing to screen No Way Back. It could be a nice event. Just a thought.
