First part of the series "Focus Human Rights". It deals with Civil and Political Rights, with Human Rights violations and the history of Human Rights.
This film marks the start of the project "Focus Human Rights". The series will consist of an overview clip and of one clip about each of the three dimensions of Human Rights.
The first dimension involves the Political and Civil Rights, the second dimension deals with the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the third dimension consists of the Collective Rights.
In addition, a number of cross-cutting issues are explained. For example: the history of Human Rights, the role of non-governmental organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, or the problems of the Human Rights system.
Together, the overview clip and the three specific clips provide a profound knowledge about the topic Human Rights.

Today, Craig is going to give you an overview of civil rights and civil liberties. Often these terms are used interchangeably, but they are actually very different. Our civil liberties, contained in the Bill of Rights, once only protected us from the federal government, but slowly these liberties have been incorporated to protect us from the states. We’ll take a look at how this has happened and the supreme court cases that got us here.

Yuri Kochiyama (b. 1921)
Yuri Kochiyama is a tireless political activist who has dedicated her life to contributing to social change through her participation in social justice and human rights movements.
She was born and raised in San Pedro, California but spent two years in a concentration camp in Jerome, Arkansas during World War II. Following the war, she moved to New York and married Bill Kochiyama, veteran of the all-Japanese American 442nd combat unit of the U.S. Army.
Yuri’s activism started in Harlem in the early 1960’s, where she participated in the Asian American, Black and Third World movements for civil and human rights, ethnic studies, and against the war in Vietnam. In 1963, she met Malcolm X. Their friendship and political alliance changed her life and outlook. She joined his group, the Organization for Afro-American Unity, to work for racial justice and human rights. Yuri was present on the day he was tragically shot and killed in 1965. In the Life magazine article “Death of Malcolm X,” she can be seen crouched in the background, cradling Malcolm X’s head.
In the 1980’s, Yuri worked in the redress and reparations movement for Japanese-Americans along with her husband Bill. Support for political prisoners – African American, Puerto Rican, Native American, Asian American, and progressive whites – has been a consistent thread in her work.
She has also won numerous awards, spoken at over 100 schools and colleges throughout the country, and has been featured in several books, films (including Yuri Kochiyama: Passion for Justice and My America: Honk if You Love Buddha) and a television documentary in 2001 (Cool Women – directed by Debbie Allen – as one of several segments on a diverse array of women in the United States). UCLA’s Asian American Studies Center published her memoirs entitled Passing It On in 2004. A biography on Yuri’s Life, called Heartbeat of the Struggle, was written in 2005.
She is the mother of six children, and has nine grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

everyhumanhasrights.org
Cape Town, December 10, 2007— To begin the 60th anniversary year of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), The Elders and partners today launched the Every Human Has Rights campaign to empower global citizens to protect the first-ever comprehensive agreement on human rights among nations.
The Every Human Has Rights campaign calls on citizens to uphold the goals of the
Universal Declaration in their daily lives and to hold governments accountable for the same. Through this effort, one billion people around the world will sign the Universal Declaration, taking responsibility and pledging to speak out to protect the freedom and rights of others in their communities.
“Today, we remind people around the world that there are universal values we all share and universal rights to which every individual is entitled,” Archbishop Tutu, Chair of The Elders said. “We launch this campaign to create an atmosphere in which no person, government, or entity can deny freedom and liberty for any human. By calling on individuals to sign the Universal Declaration, we are asking the citizens of the global village to empower themselves and their communities by standing behind its values and goals. But we are also asking that one united human family join together to protect and defend the rights of each other.”
Persistent Abuses Galvanize Human Rights Icons
The Every Human Has Rights campaign launches at a time of human rights uncertainty around the globe, and will aim to raise awareness, particularly in areas of the world where governments ignore “equal justice, equal opportunity, [and] equal dignity without discrimination,” as voiced by Eleanor Roosevelt, champion of the Universal Declaration 60 years ago.
The Elders, a group of global leaders convened by Nelson Mandela and Graca Machel to address some of the major problems facing the world, became the first signatories to the online pledge, as an empty chair draped in orange drew attention to the continued imprisonment of Burmese human rights defender and Elder, Aung San Suu Kyi. The Elders Chair Archbishop Desmond Tutu, members Mary Robinson, former UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, and Graca Machel, President, Foundation for Community Development, Mozambique, shared the stage with leaders of human rights organizations to demand respect for the basic human rights agreed to in the UDHR.
An Unprecedented, Diverse Coalition
A diverse group of global NGOs, civil society organizations and businesses are partnering in the Every Human Has Rights campaign to highlight UDHR principles, including the right to health, women’s rights, and freedom of expression. Launch partners include ActionAid, Amnesty International, Center for Women’s Global Leadership, International PEN, Witness, Realizing Rights, Save the Children and UNICEF and throughout the year we will expand to include partners from civil society organizations in the developing world through networks like Civicus and directly. Through an innovative collaboration with Google and Witness, individuals and communities from around the world can tell stories of human rights abuses
and human rights triumphs, which will then be brought to life on Google Earth.
“The UDHR’s 60th anniversary offers a chance for a global conversation about the values that unite us as one human family,” said Mary Robinson. “But it can be more. It can also be a moment for new visions and actions rooted in the best traditions of our past. 2008 can be a year in which people from every walk of life learn about and reflect on our shared rights. Now a new generation takes on a task to ensure that every human truly does have the rights they deserve – and that every government lives up to an agreement made 60 years ago to deliver those rights.”
Background on UDHR
Signed on December 10, 1948, the Universal Declaration marked the first time in history that nations came together to agree on basic principles of justice, equality, and rights for all of humanity. Signatories took this action as the world began to confront the devastation in the wake of World War II, the Holocaust, and the use of the atomic bomb.
UDHR has exerted a moral, political and legal influence throughout the world, far beyond the aspirations of its drafters. It has been a primary source of inspiration for all post-war international legislation in the field of human rights. All of the United Nations human rights treaties and resolutions as well as the regional human rights conventions - the European and American conventions and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' rights - have been directly inspired by UDHR.
Campaigning at a Critical Time
Today, nearly 60 years after its signing, the world is confronted with the need to reaffirm UDHR in the face of abuses across the globe.
“Human rights are not a privilege, they are everyone’s entitlement and it is an indictment of all of us that the rights of women and children

Civil and political rights
Civil and political rights are a class of rights that protect individuals' freedom from infringement by governments, social organizations and private individuals, and which ensure one's ability to participate in the civil and political life of the society and state without discrimination or repression.
Civil rights include the ensuring of peoples' physical and mental integrity, life and safety; protection from discrimination on grounds such as race, gender, national origin, colour, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, or disability; and individual rights such as privacy, the freedoms of thought and conscience, speech and expression, religion, the press, assembly and movement.
Political rights include natural justice (procedural fairness) in law, such as the rights of the accused, including the right to a fair trial; due process; the right to seek redress or a legal remedy; and rights of participation in civil society and politics such as freedom of association, the right to assemble, the right to petition, the right of self-defense, and the right to vote.

Human rights
Human rights are moral principles or norms, that describe certain standards of human behavior, and are regularly protected as legal rights in municipal and international law. They are commonly understood as inalienable fundamental rights "to which a person is inherently entitled simply because she or he is a human being," and which are "inherent in all human beings" regardless of their nation, location, language, religion, ethnic origin or any other status. They are applicable everywhere and at every time in the sense of being universal, and they are egalitarian in the sense of being the same for everyone. They require empathy and the rule of law and impose an obligation on persons to respect the human rights of others. They should not be taken away except as a result of due process based on specific circumstances; for example, human rights may include freedom from unlawful imprisonment, torture, and execution.

Human
Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens) are the only extant members of Hominina clade (or human clade), a branch of the taxonomical tribe Hominini belonging to the family of great apes. They are characterized by erect posture and bipedal locomotion, manual dexterity and increased tool use, and a general trend toward larger, more complex brains and societies.
Early hominins—particularly the australopithecines, whose brains and anatomy are in many ways more similar to ancestral non-human apes—are less often referred to as "human" than hominins of the genus Homo. Some of the latter used fire, occupied much of Eurasia, and gave rise to anatomically modern Homo sapiens in Africa about 200,000 years ago. They began to exhibit evidence of behavioral modernity around 50,000 years ago, and migrated in successive waves to occupy all but the smallest, driest, and coldest lands.
The spread of humans and their large and increasing population has had a profound impact on large areas of the environment and millions of native species worldwide. Advantages that explain this evolutionary success include a relatively larger brain with a particularly well-developed neocortex, prefrontal cortex and temporal lobes, which enable high levels of abstract reasoning, language, problem solving, sociality, and culture through social learning. Humans use tools to a much higher degree than any other animal, are the only extant species known to build fires and cook their food, and are the only extant species to clothe themselves and create and use numerous other technologies and arts.

Larry Itliong
Larry Dulay Itliong (25 October 1913 – 8 February 1977), also known as "Seven Fingers", was a Filipino American labor organizer. He organized West Coast agricultural workers starting in the 1930s, and rose to national prominence in 1965, when he, Philip Vera Cruz, Benjamin Gines and Pete Velasco, walked off the farms of area table-grape growers, demanding wages equal to the federal minimum wage, that became known as the Delano grape strike. He has been described as "one of the fathers of the West Coast labor movement."
Biography
Itliong was a native of Pangasinan Province in the Philippines. One of six children of Artemio and Francesca Itliong, Itliong only had a sixth grade education. He immigrated to the United States in 1929 and joined his first strike in 1930; Itliong was only 14 when he came to the United States. Itliong was an excellent card player, and avid cigar smoker, who spoke multiple Filipino languages, Spanish, Cantonese, Japanese, and taught himself about law. Itliong married six times, had seven children, and raised his family in the Delano area and in the Little Manila community of Stockton, California

The Elders (organization)
The Elders is an international non-governmental organisation of public figures noted as elder statesmen, peace activists, and human rights advocates, who were brought together by Nelson Mandela in 2007. They describe themselves as "independent global leaders working together for peace and human rights". The goal Mandela set for the Elders was to use their "almost 1,000 years of collective experience" to work on solutions for seemingly insurmountable problems such as climate change, HIV/AIDS, and poverty, as well as to "use their political independence to help resolve some of the world's most intractable conflicts".
History
The Elders is chaired by Kofi Annan and consists of eleven Elders and one honorary Elder.Desmond Tutu served for six years as chair before stepping down in May 2013, and remains an Honorary Elder.
The group was initiated by Richard Branson and musician and human rights activist Peter Gabriel, together with anti-apartheid activist and former South African President Nelson Mandela. Mandela announced the formation of the group on his eighty-ninth birthday on 18 July 2007 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The Elders, a group of global leaders convened by Nelson Mandela and Graca Machel to address some of the major problems facing the world, became the first signatories to the online pledge, as an empty chair draped in orange drew attention to the continued imprisonment of Burmese human rights defender and Elder, Aung San Suu Kyi. The Elders Chair Archbishop Desmond Tutu, members Mary Robinson, former UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, and Graca Machel, President, Foundation for Community Development, Mozambique, shared the stage with leaders of human rights organizations to demand respect for the basic human rights agreed to in the UDHR. An Unprecedented, Diverse Coalition A diverse group of global NGOs, civil society organizations and businesses are partnering in the Every Human Has Rights campaign to highlight UDHR principles, including the right to health, women’s rights, and freedom of expression. Launch partners include ActionAid, Amnesty International, Center for Women’s Global Leadership, International PEN, Witness, Realizing Rights, Save the Children and UNICEF and throughout the year we will expand to include partners from civil society organizations in the developing world through networks like Civicus and directly. Through an innovative collaboration with Google and Witness, individuals and communities from around the world can tell stories of human rights abuses and human rights triumphs, which will then be brought to life on Google Earth. “The UDHR’s 60th anniversary offers a chance for a global conversation about the values that unite us as one human family,” said Mary Robinson. “But it can be more. It can also be a moment for new visions and actions rooted in the best traditions of our past. 2008 can be a year in which people from every walk of life learn about and reflect on our shared rights. Now a new generation takes on a task to ensure that every human truly does have the rights they deserve – and that every government lives up to an agreement made 60 years ago to deliver those rights.” Background on UDHR Signed on December 10, 1948, the Universal Declaration marked the first time in history that nations came together to agree on basic principles of justice, equality, and rights for all of humanity. Signatories took this action as the world began to confront the devastation in the wake of World War II, the Holocaust, and the use of the atomic bomb. UDHR has exerted a moral, political and legal influence throughout the world, far beyond the aspirations of its drafters. It has been a primary source of inspiration for all post-war international legislation in the field of human rights. All of the United Nations human rights treaties and resolutions as well as the regional human rights conventions - the European and American conventions and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' rights - have been directly inspired by UDHR. Campaigning at a Critical Time Today, nearly 60 years after its signing, the world is confronted with the need to reaffirm UDHR in the face of abuses across the globe. “Human rights are not a privilege, they are everyone’s entitlement and it is an indictment of all of us that the rights of women and children -

AAPI Civil Rights Heroes - Larry ItliongAAPI Civil Rights Heroes - Larry Itliong
Larry Itliong (1913-1977) Farm labor organizer Larry Itliong and a group of Filipino farmworkers instigated one of the American farm labor movement’s finest hours – The Delano Grape Strike of 1965 and national boycott that brought about the creation of the United Farm Workers Union (UFW). While the movement is known for Cesar Chavez’s leadership and considered a Chicano movement, Filipinos played a pivotal role that began it all. Itliong was born in 1913 in the Philippines. Not having finished grammar school, the self-educated Itliong came to the western United States in 1929. He worked in California and Alaska, becoming involved in union causes in both locations. In 1956 he founded the Filipino Farm Labor Union in California. Itliong organized a group of 1500 Filipinos to strike against the grape growers of Delano, California. For eight days they struck alone, getting thrown out of their labor camp homes, and facing violence from growers’ hired thugs and the sheriff’s department. Larry went to Cesar Chavez and his group of Mexican farmworkers, the National Farmworkers Association (NFWA), and asked them to join the Filipinos in their strike. What happened after that made civil rights history: the two groups merged together to created the United Farm Workers Union, with Cesar Chavez as director and Larry Itliong as assistant director. Itliong continued to organize in the labor movement with the UFW and the Filipino American Political Alliance until his passing in 1977. The story of Larry and the Delano Filipinos and how they faced unfair and inhumane working conditions is as relevant now as it was then. And sadly, the agricultural environment has reverted back to what it was 40 years ago with low wages, inhumane conditions and little political or social power for the farmworkers. A documentary film about Itliong, The Delano Manongs: Forgotten Heroes of the United Farm Workers, began screening in 2014 at film festivals and is slated for a national PBS broadcast. In 2010, the city of Carson, in southern California, created Larry Itliong Day, celebrated each year on his birthday, October 25. (Source: adapted from delanomanongs.com)

Civil Rights & Liberties: Crash Course Government #23
Today, Craig is going to give you an overview of civil rights and civil liberties. Often these terms are used interchangeably, but they are actually very different. Our civil liberties, contained in the Bill of Rights, once only protected us from the federal government, but slowly these liberties have been incorporated to protect us from the states. We’ll take a look at how this has happened and the supreme court cases that got us here.

Her attempt to pass a new constitution galvanized opposition forces, which were comprised of Hawai`i born citizens of American parents, naturalized citizens and foreign nationals. This group, with the support of the American Minister to Hawai`i, orchestrated the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy and the establishment of a provisional government. In 1893, Queen Lili`uokalani yielded her authority. “. . .

Today, Craig is going to give you an overview of civil rights and civil liberties. Often these terms are used interchangeably, but they are actually very different. Our civil liberties, contained in the Bill of Rights, once only protected us from the federal government, but slowly these liberties have been incorporated to protect us from the states. We’ll take a look at how this has happened and the supreme court cases that got us here.

Yuri Kochiyama (b. 1921)
Yuri Kochiyama is a tireless political activist who has dedicated her life to contributing to social change through her participation in social justice and human rights movements.
She was born and raised in San Pedro, California but spent two years in a concentration camp in Jerome, Arkansas during World War II. Following the war, she moved to New York and married Bill Kochiyama, veteran of the all-Japanese American 442nd combat unit of the U.S. Army.
Yuri’s activism started in Harlem in the early 1960’s, where she participated in the Asian American, Black and Third World movements for civil and human rights, ethnic studies, and against the war in Vietnam. In 1963, she met Malcolm X. Their friendship and political alliance changed her life and outlook. She joined his group, the Organization for Afro-American Unity, to work for racial justice and human rights. Yuri was present on the day he was tragically shot and killed in 1965. In the Life magazine article “Death of Malcolm X,” she can be seen crouched in the background, cradling Malcolm X’s head.
In the 1980’s, Yuri worked in the redress and reparations movement for Japanese-Americans along with her husband Bill. Support for political prisoners – African American, Puerto Rican, Native American, Asian American, and progressive whites – has been a consistent thread in her work.
She has also won numerous awards, spoken at over 100 schools and colleges throughout the country, and has been featured in several books, films (including Yuri Kochiyama: Passion for Justice and My America: Honk if You Love Buddha) and a television documentary in 2001 (Cool Women – directed by Debbie Allen – as one of several segments on a diverse array of women in the United States). UCLA’s Asian American Studies Center published her memoirs entitled Passing It On in 2004. A biography on Yuri’s Life, called Heartbeat of the Struggle, was written in 2005.
She is the mother of six children, and has nine grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

everyhumanhasrights.org
Cape Town, December 10, 2007— To begin the 60th anniversary year of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), The Elders and partners today launched the Every Human Has Rights campaign to empower global citizens to protect the first-ever comprehensive agreement on human rights among nations.
The Every Human Has Rights campaign calls on citizens to uphold the goals of the
Universal Declaration in their daily lives and to hold governments accountable for the same. Through this effort, one billion people around the world will sign the Universal Declaration, taking responsibility and pledging to speak out to protect the freedom and rights of others in their communities.
“Today, we remind people around the world that there are universal values we all share and universal rights to which every individual is entitled,” Archbishop Tutu, Chair of The Elders said. “We launch this campaign to create an atmosphere in which no person, government, or entity can deny freedom and liberty for any human. By calling on individuals to sign the Universal Declaration, we are asking the citizens of the global village to empower themselves and their communities by standing behind its values and goals. But we are also asking that one united human family join together to protect and defend the rights of each other.”
Persistent Abuses Galvanize Human Rights Icons
The Every Human Has Rights campaign launches at a time of human rights uncertainty around the globe, and will aim to raise awareness, particularly in areas of the world where governments ignore “equal justice, equal opportunity, [and] equal dignity without discrimination,” as voiced by Eleanor Roosevelt, champion of the Universal Declaration 60 years ago.
The Elders, a group of global leaders convened by Nelson Mandela and Graca Machel to address some of the major problems facing the world, became the first signatories to the online pledge, as an empty chair draped in orange drew attention to the continued imprisonment of Burmese human rights defender and Elder, Aung San Suu Kyi. The Elders Chair Archbishop Desmond Tutu, members Mary Robinson, former UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, and Graca Machel, President, Foundation for Community Development, Mozambique, shared the stage with leaders of human rights organizations to demand respect for the basic human rights agreed to in the UDHR.
An Unprecedented, Diverse Coalition
A diverse group of global NGOs, civil society organizations and businesses are partnering in the Every Human Has Rights campaign to highlight UDHR principles, including the right to health, women’s rights, and freedom of expression. Launch partners include ActionAid, Amnesty International, Center for Women’s Global Leadership, International PEN, Witness, Realizing Rights, Save the Children and UNICEF and throughout the year we will expand to include partners from civil society organizations in the developing world through networks like Civicus and directly. Through an innovative collaboration with Google and Witness, individuals and communities from around the world can tell stories of human rights abuses
and human rights triumphs, which will then be brought to life on Google Earth.
“The UDHR’s 60th anniversary offers a chance for a global conversation about the values that unite us as one human family,” said Mary Robinson. “But it can be more. It can also be a moment for new visions and actions rooted in the best traditions of our past. 2008 can be a year in which people from every walk of life learn about and reflect on our shared rights. Now a new generation takes on a task to ensure that every human truly does have the rights they deserve – and that every government lives up to an agreement made 60 years ago to deliver those rights.”
Background on UDHR
Signed on December 10, 1948, the Universal Declaration marked the first time in history that nations came together to agree on basic principles of justice, equality, and rights for all of humanity. Signatories took this action as the world began to confront the devastation in the wake of World War II, the Holocaust, and the use of the atomic bomb.
UDHR has exerted a moral, political and legal influence throughout the world, far beyond the aspirations of its drafters. It has been a primary source of inspiration for all post-war international legislation in the field of human rights. All of the United Nations human rights treaties and resolutions as well as the regional human rights conventions - the European and American conventions and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' rights - have been directly inspired by UDHR.
Campaigning at a Critical Time
Today, nearly 60 years after its signing, the world is confronted with the need to reaffirm UDHR in the face of abuses across the globe.
“Human rights are not a privilege, they are everyone’s entitlement and it is an indictment of all of us that the rights of women and children

Larry Itliong (1913-1977)
Farm labor organizer Larry Itliong and a group of Filipino farmworkers instigated one of the American farm labor movement’s finest hours – The Delano Grape Strike of 1965 and national boycott that brought about the creation of the United Farm Workers Union (UFW). While the movement is known for Cesar Chavez’s leadership and considered a Chicano movement, Filipinos played a pivotal role that began it all.
Itliong was born in 1913 in the Philippines. Not having finished grammar school, the self-educated Itliong came to the western United States in 1929. He worked in California and Alaska, becoming involved in union causes
in both locations. In 1956 he founded the Filipino Farm Labor Union in California. Itliong organized a group of 1500 Filipinos to strike against the grape growers of Delano, California. For eight days they struck alone, getting thrown out of their labor camp homes, and facing violence from growers’ hired thugs and the sheriff’s department. Larry went to Cesar Chavez and his group of Mexican farmworkers, the National Farmworkers Association (NFWA), and asked them to join the Filipinos in their strike. What happened after that made civil rights history: the two groups merged together to created the United Farm Workers Union, with Cesar Chavez as director and Larry Itliong as assistant director.
Itliong continued to organize in the labor movement with the UFW and the Filipino American Political Alliance until his passing in 1977. The story of Larry and the Delano Filipinos and how they faced unfair and inhumane working conditions is as relevant now as it was then. And sadly, the agricultural environment has reverted back to what it was 40 years ago with low wages, inhumane conditions and little political or social power for the farmworkers.
A documentary film about Itliong, The Delano Manongs: Forgotten Heroes of the United Farm Workers, began screening in 2014 at film festivals and is slated for a national PBS broadcast. In 2010, the city of Carson, in southern California, created Larry Itliong Day, celebrated each year on his birthday, October 25.

First part of the series "Focus Human Rights". It deals with Civil and Political Rights, with Human Rights violations and the history of Human Rights.
This film marks the start of the project "Focus Human Rights". The series will consist of an overview clip and of one clip about each of the three dimensions of Human Rights.
The first dimension involves the Political and Civil Rights, the second dimension deals with the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the third dimension consists of the Collective Rights.
In addition, a number of cross-cutting issues are explained. For example: the history of Human Rights, the role of non-governmental organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, or the problems of the Human Rights system.
Together, the overview clip and the three specific clips provide a profound knowledge about the topic Human Rights.

Queen Lili`uokalani (1838-1917)
Queen Lili`uokalani ascended the throne in 1891 and was determined to strengthen the political power of the Hawaiian monarchy and to limit suffrage to subjects of the kingdom.
Her attempt to pass a new constitution galvanized opposition forces, which were comprised of Hawai`i born citizens of American parents, naturalized citizens and foreign nationals. This group, with the support of the American Minister to Hawai`i, orchestrated the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy and the establishment of a provisional government. In 1893, Queen Lili`uokalani yielded her authority.
“. . . Now to avoid any collision of armed forces, and perhaps the loss of life, I do this under protest and impelled by said force yield my authority until such time as the Government of the United States shall, upon facts being presented to it, undo the action of its representatives and reinstate me in the authority which I claim as the Constitutional Sovereign of the Hawaiian Islands.” - Queen Lili`uokalani to Sanford B. Dole, Jan 17, 1893
In 1895, an attempt by Hawaiian royalists to restore the Queen to power resulted in the Queen’s arrest. She was forced to sign a document of abdication that relinquished all her future claims to the throne. Following this, she endured a humiliating public trial before a military tribunal in her former throne room. Convicted of having knowledge of a royalist plot, Lili`uokalani was imprisoned in an upstairs bedroom of `Iolani Palace. After her release, Lili`uokalani visited the United States. During her time on the mainland, she published an autobiography, Hawai`i’s Story by Hawai`i’s Queen.
The Queen was also was a talented musician and accomplished composer. She wrote approximately 165 songs, including “Ke Aloha O Ka Haku” -- “The Queen’s Prayer,” which was written during her imprisonment. Her best known composition was the the immensely popular and lasting favorite “Aloha `Oe.” Queen Lili`uokalani passed away in 1917 having seen her beloved kingdom become a US territory. In 1959, Hawai`i became America’s 50th state.
Still, Hawaiians never forgot their last Queen. A bronze statue of Lili`uokalani stands outside `Iolani Palace, where to this day, visitors come bearing fresh flowers. In 1993, 100 years after the overthrow, President Clinton signed a Congressional resolution in which the United States government formally apologized to the Native Hawaiian people.

Financial civil disobedience and the right of rebellion.
An invitation to mass civil disobedience.
Letter published by Enric Duran, after court case information appeared in press.
Las Wednesday November 23rd, we found out through the press (http://www.kaosenlared.net/noticia/fiscal-pide-8-anos-carcel-para-enric-...) that the public prosecutor has made a petition of 8 years of prison for the financial civil disobedience action, made public by me on September 17th 2008, with the publication of “Crisi” (See: http://www.podem.cat/butlleti17s09/he-robat-492000-euros-als-que-m-s-ens)
It is important to clarify that this is the only novelty that has transcended about my criminal procedure. I have been able to confirm that the oral procedure phase has not started and still doesn’t have scheduled dates. The information of the 23rd followed other information about a civil procedure with BBVA, to which I presented myself last Friday November 18th (release on this: http://www.enricduran.cat/node/6571), but this has nothing to do with the criminal procedure. Some people misunderstood and thought it had been initiated, so I want to clarify that this is not so and reassure everyone in this sense.
The second and main reason of this statement is to explain to friends, colleagues and everyone that has shown interest about the novelties of my judicial procedure, what my point of view is about the strategy to follow, so you can have it in mind from now on.
First of all I want to recall that in my declaration of December 17th 2008, I stated: “I do not believe the judicial system is legitimized to judge me”. Since then, many things have happened that have made me completely reassure myself on this position:
The lack of a legal action upon the speculative “disappearance” of millions of Euros in the financial world, that has inflicted severe consequences on the population.

indispensible of duties”.
I believe that who is not worthy of my deposit of sovereignty, doesn’t have the legitimacy to accuse or judge me, obviating the existing conflict between the ruling classes and the masses.
A public prosecutor office that inhibits itself while bankers and politicians conspire against the people, has no legitimacy to accuse me of anything or to impose any penalty for a political act like mine.
The laws upon which my accusation is based upon, have no validity when used for the benefit of those “above” and against popular classes.
Precisely, my anti-banks action, was an act of retrieval and social justice, to rebalance, though in a small way, some of the injustices commited by those in power.
My action is part the political fight of the people for freedom from the dominion and oppression of the dominant classes, any reading that hides this fact will be partial and manipulating.
To all those friends that worry about me going to prison, to those that imagine I will be suffering thinking about this possibility, I want you to know that is not so. I am inspired and excited as always with what may happen and, most of all, with what we can be capable of doing.
In the “Crisi” publication I already stated:
“If the state is unable of escaping the pressure of the forces in power, let everyone see it when keeping someone like me in prison”.
It is true that prison is a possibility for me. It was from the very moment I decided to start bank disobedience, when I made my action public and when I returned to public activity on March 16th, becoming a reality during two months.
I know that if I return to prison, some doors would close but other opportunities would open. Power resists putting us in prison for political actions of civil disobedience because it knows it implies a strong loss of its legitimacy and can turn against them. Different moments in history have shown us that imprisonment of social activists can be the beginning of success for the goals we fight for.
Without going any further, it is worthwhile recalling the role played by the unsubmissive to military service with the elimination of compulsory military service.
In February 1989, fifty-seven young rebels declared themselves unsubmissive to compulsory military service. From then until 2001, when military service was abolished, 1670 desobedient passed through prison (s

Financial civil disobedience and the right of rebellion.
An invitation to mass civil disobedience.
Letter published by Enric Duran, after court case information appeared in press.
Las Wednesday November 23rd, we found out through the press (http://www.kaosenlared.net/noticia/fiscal-pide-8-anos-carcel-para-enric-...) that the public prosecutor has made a petition of 8 years of prison for the financial civil disobedience action, made public by me on September 17th 2008, with the publication of “Crisi” (See: http://www.podem.cat/butlleti17s09/he-robat-492000-euros-als-que-m-s-ens)
It is important to clarify that this is the only novelty that has transcended about my criminal procedure. I have been able to confirm that the oral procedure phase has not started and still doesn’t have scheduled dates. The information of the 23rd followed other information about a civil procedure with BBVA, to which I presented myself last Friday November 18th (release on this: http://www.enricduran.cat/node/6571), but this has nothing to do with the criminal procedure. Some people misunderstood and thought it had been initiated, so I want to clarify that this is not so and reassure everyone in this sense.
The second and main reason of this statement is to explain to friends, colleagues and everyone that has shown interest about the novelties of my judicial procedure, what my point of view is about the strategy to follow, so you can have it in mind from now on.
First of all I want to recall that in my declaration of December 17th 2008, I stated: “I do not believe the judicial system is legitimized to judge me”. Since then, many things have happened that have made me completely reassure myself on this position:
The lack of a legal action upon the speculative “disappearance” of millions of Euros in the financial world, that has inflicted severe consequences on the population.
The September 2011 Spanish constitution reform to benefit the banks, establishing payment of public debt as an “absolute priority” and without citizen consultation.
The severe health cuts in Catalonia that have already taken lives and cut down the quality of life of all the people.

Nine young gay men are interviewed in this unconventional documentary short. All nine men come from various areas across the country (Massachusetts, California, Texas, Indiana, Florida, Michigan, & New Jersey). However, none of the men are seen on screen, instead nine straight actors portray and lip-sync their appearances. The majority supports the minority in this film, as topics range from stereotypes to coming out, civil rights, and personal opinions.

Q&A;::
Q: "What attracted you to doing this project?"
Answers:
Jordan: Curtis has been talking about this project to me ever since we met. He had asked me if I wanted to be apart of it and I said "Of course! It sounds very interesting!" It didn't matter if I was acting or if I was apart of the production team; just to say I was a part of this documentary was all I wanted.
Andrew: A chance to break a restraining wall that separates gays from straights. Here I am, a straight guy, trying to understand what life is like for gays, a nearly impossible thing to do. This was an opportunity to put myself in the shoes of someone gay and to try to see life from that perspective.
David: I think what attracted me to this project was that other people weren’t willing to do it. The director was having trouble getting straight guys to be on camera, lip-syncing to gay men, and I just thought that was so absurd. I think the idea of portraying a gay man makes most straight guys uncomfortable. In mainstream culture, the gay identity is often thought of as not being masculine or being more effeminate. I think that gay people are as diverse as straight people when it comes to defining masculinity within their own culture.
Meghan: I was initially interested in becoming involved for the sole reason that I have worked with Curtis before, and I really enjoy him as a director. However, I came to see the project as a very unique point of view that allowed everyone involved to give a voice to many questions that are often left unanswered because of their tendency to be too personal.
Christopher: The seemingly conflicting concept of acting in a documentary appealed to me, but the biggest reason was Curtis's enthusiasm. He seemed passionate about both the subject matter and the presentation. I feel most young filmmakers tend to favor one over the other.
Soleil: When I first watched The Reality Behind Closed Doors I saw both an opportunity and a challenge to create a score that would bolster the raw, emotional energy that Curtis had captured, while keeping the music hopeful and optimistic. The 'unconventional' nature of this documentary also fascinated me, and by doing this, Curtis has created a very smart, dynamic way to get people like myself to see things from a different perspective.
Dominique: My attraction to this project had been the brutal honesty and the undeniable presence of bold truth. Shying away from eyes that only see in one direction; what they consider “right”, “acceptable”, and “true”. I fell in love with the whole idea of having “real” people speak on behalf of “real” people; not those who become the stereotypical norm (the view that commercial media portrays, falsely.) Every essence of this project became another layer of attraction for me. Making my eyes and heart that much more open and longing.
Paul: I was attracted to the project because I wanted to learn more about some of the issues within gay society. It was interesting to learn so many views from one question. Not a single person that was recorded had a similar view about most of the subjects and that was what really intrigued me.
Q: "Cast, can you identify with your characters at all?"
Answers:
Elisabeth: I can identify with the character in that he is a human being who wants to be accepted for who he is and not have to conform to anyone else's image of what he should be. To me, that'

Today, Craig is going to give you an overview of civil rights and civil liberties. Often these terms are used interchangeably, but they are actually very different. Our civil liberties, contained in the Bill of Rights, once only protected us from the federal government, but slowly these liberties have been incorporated to protect us from the states.

While the movement is known for Cesar Chavez’s leadership and considered a Chicano movement, Filipinos played a pivotal role that began it all. Itliong was born in 1913 in the Philippines. Not having finished grammar school, the self-educated Itliong came to the western United States in 1929. He worked in California and Alaska, becoming involved in union causes in both locations. In 1956 he founded the Filipino Farm Labor Union in California. Itliong organized a group of 1500 Filipinos to strike agains...

Her attempt to pass a new constitution galvanized opposition forces, which were comprised of Hawai`i born citizens of American parents, naturalized citizens and foreign nationals. This group, with the support of the American Minister to Hawai`i, orchestrated the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy and the establishment of a provisional government.

First part of the series "Focus Human Rights". It deals with Civil and Political Rights, with Human Rights violations and the history of Human Rights.
This film marks the start of the project "Focus Human Rights". The series will consist of an overview clip and of one clip about each of the three dimensions of Human Rights.
The first dimension involves the Political and Civil Rights, the second dimension deals with the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the third dimension consists of the Collective Rights.
In addition, a number of cross-cutting issues are explained. For example: the history of Human Rights, the role of non-governmental organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, or the problems of the Human Rights system.
Together, the overview clip and the three specific clips provide a profound knowledge about the topic Human Rights.

Today, Craig is going to give you an overview of civil rights and civil liberties. Often these terms are used interchangeably, but they are actually very different. Our civil liberties, contained in the Bill of Rights, once only protected us from the federal government, but slowly these liberties have been incorporated to protect us from the states. We’ll take a look at how this has happened and the supreme court cases that got us here.

Yuri Kochiyama (b. 1921)
Yuri Kochiyama is a tireless political activist who has dedicated her life to contributing to social change through her participation in social justice and human rights movements.
She was born and raised in San Pedro, California but spent two years in a concentration camp in Jerome, Arkansas during World War II. Following the war, she moved to New York and married Bill Kochiyama, veteran of the all-Japanese American 442nd combat unit of the U.S. Army.
Yuri’s activism started in Harlem in the early 1960’s, where she participated in the Asian American, Black and Third World movements for civil and human rights, ethnic studies, and against the war in Vietnam. In 1963, she met Malcolm X. Their friendship and political alliance changed her life and outlook. She joined his group, the Organization for Afro-American Unity, to work for racial justice and human rights. Yuri was present on the day he was tragically shot and killed in 1965. In the Life magazine article “Death of Malcolm X,” she can be seen crouched in the background, cradling Malcolm X’s head.
In the 1980’s, Yuri worked in the redress and reparations movement for Japanese-Americans along with her husband Bill. Support for political prisoners – African American, Puerto Rican, Native American, Asian American, and progressive whites – has been a consistent thread in her work.
She has also won numerous awards, spoken at over 100 schools and colleges throughout the country, and has been featured in several books, films (including Yuri Kochiyama: Passion for Justice and My America: Honk if You Love Buddha) and a television documentary in 2001 (Cool Women – directed by Debbie Allen – as one of several segments on a diverse array of women in the United States). UCLA’s Asian American Studies Center published her memoirs entitled Passing It On in 2004. A biography on Yuri’s Life, called Heartbeat of the Struggle, was written in 2005.
She is the mother of six children, and has nine grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

everyhumanhasrights.org
Cape Town, December 10, 2007— To begin the 60th anniversary year of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), The Elders and partners today launched the Every Human Has Rights campaign to empower global citizens to protect the first-ever comprehensive agreement on human rights among nations.
The Every Human Has Rights campaign calls on citizens to uphold the goals of the
Universal Declaration in their daily lives and to hold governments accountable for the same. Through this effort, one billion people around the world will sign the Universal Declaration, taking responsibility and pledging to speak out to protect the freedom and rights of others in their communities.
“Today, we remind people around the world that there are universal values we all share and universal rights to which every individual is entitled,” Archbishop Tutu, Chair of The Elders said. “We launch this campaign to create an atmosphere in which no person, government, or entity can deny freedom and liberty for any human. By calling on individuals to sign the Universal Declaration, we are asking the citizens of the global village to empower themselves and their communities by standing behind its values and goals. But we are also asking that one united human family join together to protect and defend the rights of each other.”
Persistent Abuses Galvanize Human Rights Icons
The Every Human Has Rights campaign launches at a time of human rights uncertainty around the globe, and will aim to raise awareness, particularly in areas of the world where governments ignore “equal justice, equal opportunity, [and] equal dignity without discrimination,” as voiced by Eleanor Roosevelt, champion of the Universal Declaration 60 years ago.
The Elders, a group of global leaders convened by Nelson Mandela and Graca Machel to address some of the major problems facing the world, became the first signatories to the online pledge, as an empty chair draped in orange drew attention to the continued imprisonment of Burmese human rights defender and Elder, Aung San Suu Kyi. The Elders Chair Archbishop Desmond Tutu, members Mary Robinson, former UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, and Graca Machel, President, Foundation for Community Development, Mozambique, shared the stage with leaders of human rights organizations to demand respect for the basic human rights agreed to in the UDHR.
An Unprecedented, Diverse Coalition
A diverse group of global NGOs, civil society organizations and businesses are partnering in the Every Human Has Rights campaign to highlight UDHR principles, including the right to health, women’s rights, and freedom of expression. Launch partners include ActionAid, Amnesty International, Center for Women’s Global Leadership, International PEN, Witness, Realizing Rights, Save the Children and UNICEF and throughout the year we will expand to include partners from civil society organizations in the developing world through networks like Civicus and directly. Through an innovative collaboration with Google and Witness, individuals and communities from around the world can tell stories of human rights abuses
and human rights triumphs, which will then be brought to life on Google Earth.
“The UDHR’s 60th anniversary offers a chance for a global conversation about the values that unite us as one human family,” said Mary Robinson. “But it can be more. It can also be a moment for new visions and actions rooted in the best traditions of our past. 2008 can be a year in which people from every walk of life learn about and reflect on our shared rights. Now a new generation takes on a task to ensure that every human truly does have the rights they deserve – and that every government lives up to an agreement made 60 years ago to deliver those rights.”
Background on UDHR
Signed on December 10, 1948, the Universal Declaration marked the first time in history that nations came together to agree on basic principles of justice, equality, and rights for all of humanity. Signatories took this action as the world began to confront the devastation in the wake of World War II, the Holocaust, and the use of the atomic bomb.
UDHR has exerted a moral, political and legal influence throughout the world, far beyond the aspirations of its drafters. It has been a primary source of inspiration for all post-war international legislation in the field of human rights. All of the United Nations human rights treaties and resolutions as well as the regional human rights conventions - the European and American conventions and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' rights - have been directly inspired by UDHR.
Campaigning at a Critical Time
Today, nearly 60 years after its signing, the world is confronted with the need to reaffirm UDHR in the face of abuses across the globe.
“Human rights are not a privilege, they are everyone’s entitlement and it is an indictment of all of us that the rights of women and children

Larry Itliong (1913-1977)
Farm labor organizer Larry Itliong and a group of Filipino farmworkers instigated one of the American farm labor movement’s finest hours – The Delano Grape Strike of 1965 and national boycott that brought about the creation of the United Farm Workers Union (UFW). While the movement is known for Cesar Chavez’s leadership and considered a Chicano movement, Filipinos played a pivotal role that began it all.
Itliong was born in 1913 in the Philippines. Not having finished grammar school, the self-educated Itliong came to the western United States in 1929. He worked in California and Alaska, becoming involved in union causes
in both locations. In 1956 he founded the Filipino Farm Labor Union in California. Itliong organized a group of 1500 Filipinos to strike against the grape growers of Delano, California. For eight days they struck alone, getting thrown out of their labor camp homes, and facing violence from growers’ hired thugs and the sheriff’s department. Larry went to Cesar Chavez and his group of Mexican farmworkers, the National Farmworkers Association (NFWA), and asked them to join the Filipinos in their strike. What happened after that made civil rights history: the two groups merged together to created the United Farm Workers Union, with Cesar Chavez as director and Larry Itliong as assistant director.
Itliong continued to organize in the labor movement with the UFW and the Filipino American Political Alliance until his passing in 1977. The story of Larry and the Delano Filipinos and how they faced unfair and inhumane working conditions is as relevant now as it was then. And sadly, the agricultural environment has reverted back to what it was 40 years ago with low wages, inhumane conditions and little political or social power for the farmworkers.
A documentary film about Itliong, The Delano Manongs: Forgotten Heroes of the United Farm Workers, began screening in 2014 at film festivals and is slated for a national PBS broadcast. In 2010, the city of Carson, in southern California, created Larry Itliong Day, celebrated each year on his birthday, October 25.

The story of Larry and the Delano Filipinos and how they faced unfair and inhumane working conditions is as relevant now as it was then. And sadly, the agricultural environment has reverted back to what it was 40 years ago with low wages, inhumane conditions and little political or social power for the farmworkers.
A documentary film about Itliong, The Delano Manongs: Forgotten Heroes of the United Farm Workers, began screening in 2014 at film festivals and is slated for a national PBS broadcast. In 2010, the city of Carson, in southern California, created Larry Itliong Day, celebrated each year on his birthday, October 25.

First part of the series "Focus Human Rights". It deals with Civil and Political Rights, with Human Rights violations and the history of Human Rights.
This film marks the start of the project "Focus Human Rights". The series will consist of an overview clip and of one clip about each of the three dimensions of Human Rights.
The first dimension involves the Political and Civil Rights, the second dimension deals with the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the third dimension consists of the Collective Rights.
In addition, a number of cross-cutting issues are explained. For example: the history of Human Rights, the role of non-governmental organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, or the problems of the Human Rights system.
Together, the overview clip and the three specific clips provide a profound knowledge about the topic Human Rights.

Queen Lili`uokalani (1838-1917)
Queen Lili`uokalani ascended the throne in 1891 and was determined to strengthen the political power of the Hawaiian monarchy and to limit suffrage to subjects of the kingdom.
Her attempt to pass a new constitution galvanized opposition forces, which were comprised of Hawai`i born citizens of American parents, naturalized citizens and foreign nationals. This group, with the support of the American Minister to Hawai`i, orchestrated the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy and the establishment of a provisional government. In 1893, Queen Lili`uokalani yielded her authority.
“. . . Now to avoid any collision of armed forces, and perhaps the loss of life, I do this under protest and impelled by said force yield my authority until such time as the Government of the United States shall, upon facts being presented to it, undo the action of its representatives and reinstate me in the authority which I claim as the Constitutional Sovereign of the Hawaiian Islands.” - Queen Lili`uokalani to Sanford B. Dole, Jan 17, 1893
In 1895, an attempt by Hawaiian royalists to restore the Queen to power resulted in the Queen’s arrest. She was forced to sign a document of abdication that relinquished all her future claims to the throne. Following this, she endured a humiliating public trial before a military tribunal in her former throne room. Convicted of having knowledge of a royalist plot, Lili`uokalani was imprisoned in an upstairs bedroom of `Iolani Palace. After her release, Lili`uokalani visited the United States. During her time on the mainland, she published an autobiography, Hawai`i’s Story by Hawai`i’s Queen.
The Queen was also was a talented musician and accomplished composer. She wrote approximately 165 songs, including “Ke Aloha O Ka Haku” -- “The Queen’s Prayer,” which was written during her imprisonment. Her best known composition was the the immensely popular and lasting favorite “Aloha `Oe.” Queen Lili`uokalani passed away in 1917 having seen her beloved kingdom become a US territory. In 1959, Hawai`i became America’s 50th state.
Still, Hawaiians never forgot their last Queen. A bronze statue of Lili`uokalani stands outside `Iolani Palace, where to this day, visitors come bearing fresh flowers. In 1993, 100 years after the overthrow, President Clinton signed a Congressional resolution in which the United States government formally apologized to the Native Hawaiian people.

Financial civil disobedience and the right of rebellion.
An invitation to mass civil disobedience.
Letter published by Enric Duran, after court case information appeared in press.
Las Wednesday November 23rd, we found out through the press (http://www.kaosenlared.net/noticia/fiscal-pide-8-anos-carcel-para-enric-...) that the public prosecutor has made a petition of 8 years of prison for the financial civil disobedience action, made public by me on September 17th 2008, with the publication of “Crisi” (See: http://www.podem.cat/butlleti17s09/he-robat-492000-euros-als-que-m-s-ens)
It is important to clarify that this is the only novelty that has transcended about my criminal procedure. I have been able to confirm that the oral procedure phase has not started and still doesn’t have scheduled dates. The information of the 23rd followed other information about a civil procedure with BBVA, to which I presented myself last Friday November 18th (release on this: http://www.enricduran.cat/node/6571), but this has nothing to do with the criminal procedure. Some people misunderstood and thought it had been initiated, so I want to clarify that this is not so and reassure everyone in this sense.
The second and main reason of this statement is to explain to friends, colleagues and everyone that has shown interest about the novelties of my judicial procedure, what my point of view is about the strategy to follow, so you can have it in mind from now on.
First of all I want to recall that in my declaration of December 17th 2008, I stated: “I do not believe the judicial system is legitimized to judge me”. Since then, many things have happened that have made me completely reassure myself on this position:
The lack of a legal action upon the speculative “disappearance” of millions of Euros in the financial world, that has inflicted severe consequences on the population.
The September 2011 Spanish constitution reform to benefit the banks, establishing payment of public debt as an “absolute priority” and without citizen consultation.
The severe health cuts in Catalonia that have already taken lives and cut down the quality of life of all the people.
The recent amnesty of Alfredo Saenz, banker of Santander Bank, coinciding with the favours this bank has towards the political party PSOE and its leaders
(see: http://www.kaosenlared.net/noticia/santander-refinancio-deuda-psoe-dio-h)
“When the government violates the people's rights, insurrection is, for the people
and for each portion of the people, the most sacred of the rights and the most
indispensible of duties”.
I believe that who is not worthy of my deposit of sovereignty, doesn’t have the legitimacy to accuse or judge me, obviating the existing conflict between the ruling classes and the masses.
A public prosecutor office that inhibits itself while bankers and politicians conspire against the people, has no legitimacy to accuse me of anything or to impose any penalty for a political act like mine.
The laws upon which my accusation is based upon, have no validity when used for the benefit of those “above” and against popular classes.
Precisely, my anti-banks action, was an act of retrieval and social justice, to rebalance, though in a small way, some of the injustices commited by those in power.
My action is part the political fight of the people for freedom from the dominion and oppression of the dominant classes, any reading that hides this fact will be partial and manipulating.
To all those friends that worry about me going to prison, to those that imagine I will be suffering thinking about this possibility, I want you to know that is not so. I am inspired and excited as always with what may happen and, most of all, with what we can be capable of doing.
In the “Crisi” publication I already stated:
“If the state is unable of escaping the pressure of the forces in power, let everyone see it when keeping someone like me in prison”.
It is true that prison is a possibility for me. It was from the very moment I decided to start bank disobedience, when I made my action public and when I returned to public activity on March 16th, becoming a reality during two months.
I know that if I return to prison, some doors would close but other opportunities would open. Power resists putting us in prison for political actions of civil disobedience because it knows it implies a strong loss of its legitimacy and can turn against them. Different moments in history have shown us that imprisonment of social activists can be the beginning of success for the goals we fight for.
Without going any further, it is worthwhile recalling the role played by the unsubmissive to military service with the elimination of compulsory military service.
In February 1989, fifty-seven young rebels declared themselves unsubmissive to compulsory military service. From then until 2001, when military service was abolished, 1670 desobedient passed through prison (s

Nine young gay men are interviewed in this unconventional documentary short. All nine men come from various areas across the country (Massachusetts, California, Texas, Indiana, Florida, Michigan, & New Jersey). However, none of the men are seen on screen, instead nine straight actors portray and lip-sync their appearances. The majority supports the minority in this film, as topics range from stereotypes to coming out, civil rights, and personal opinions.

Q&A;::
Q: "What attracted you to doing this project?"
Answers:
Jordan: Curtis has been talking about this project to me ever since we met. He had asked me if I wanted to be apart of it and I said "Of course! It sounds very interesting!" It didn't matter if I was acting or if I was apart of the production team; just to say I was a part of this documentary was all I wanted.
Andrew: A chance to break a restraining wall that separates gays from straights. Here I am, a straight guy, trying to understand what life is like for gays, a nearly impossible thing to do. This was an opportunity to put myself in the shoes of someone gay and to try to see life from that perspective.
David: I think what attracted me to this project was that other people weren’t willing to do it. The director was having trouble getting straight guys to be on camera, lip-syncing to gay men, and I just thought that was so absurd. I think the idea of portraying a gay man makes most straight guys uncomfortable. In mainstream culture, the gay identity is often thought of as not being masculine or being more effeminate. I think that gay people are as diverse as straight people when it comes to defining masculinity within their own culture.
Meghan: I was initially interested in becoming involved for the sole reason that I have worked with Curtis before, and I really enjoy him as a director. However, I came to see the project as a very unique point of view that allowed everyone involved to give a voice to many questions that are often left unanswered because of their tendency to be too personal.
Christopher: The seemingly conflicting concept of acting in a documentary appealed to me, but the biggest reason was Curtis's enthusiasm. He seemed passionate about both the subject matter and the presentation. I feel most young filmmakers tend to favor one over the other.
Soleil: When I first watched The Reality Behind Closed Doors I saw both an opportunity and a challenge to create a score that would bolster the raw, emotional energy that Curtis had captured, while keeping the music hopeful and optimistic. The 'unconventional' nature of this documentary also fascinated me, and by doing this, Curtis has created a very smart, dynamic way to get people like myself to see things from a different perspective.
Dominique: My attraction to this project had been the brutal honesty and the undeniable presence of bold truth. Shying away from eyes that only see in one direction; what they consider “right”, “acceptable”, and “true”. I fell in love with the whole idea of having “real” people speak on behalf of “real” people; not those who become the stereotypical norm (the view that commercial media portrays, falsely.) Every essence of this project became another layer of attraction for me. Making my eyes and heart that much more open and longing.
Paul: I was attracted to the project because I wanted to learn more about some of the issues within gay society. It was interesting to learn so many views from one question. Not a single person that was recorded had a similar view about most of the subjects and that was what really intrigued me.
Q: "Cast, can you identify with your characters at all?"
Answers:
Elisabeth: I can identify with the character in that he is a human being who wants to be accepted for who he is and not have to conform to anyone else's image of what he should be. To me, that'
