Remembering the Normal Heart Controversy(2/11)

7:00 PM – TBA, February 11, 2017

The premiere of a new documentary “Remembering the Normal Heart Controversy in Springfield, Missouri,” sponsored by the Department of Media, Journalism and Film at MSU, will be on Saturday, February 11 at 7:00 PM at the Plaster Union Theater.

In the fall of 1989, The Southwest Missouri State University (now MSU) Theatre Department decided to produce The Normal Heart, and autobiographical play by Larry Kramer about the politics and early stages of the AIDS epidemic in New York City.  The Department wanted to bring AIDS education and awareness to students and the local community.

When a local conservative state legislator read the play and was offended by its content, she organized a large coalition of like-minded individuals calling itself “Citizens Demanding Standards.” Their goal was to stop production of the play or to censor its content.  The University stood firm in its position that stopping the play would violate the Constitutional Rights of students and faculty.

The controversy escalated to the national stage as the battle over public funding, morality and free speech culminated in an opening night act of violence that left the community stunned.  Through personal stories and archival news footage this film explores the controversy surrounding the 1989 production and is a sobering reminder that extreme views can incite extreme actions.

MSU Film Series: “Remembering ‘The Normal Heart’ Controversy in Springfield, MO”(2/11)

7:00 PM – 10:00 PM, February 11, 2017Description

The MSU Film Series presents a free screening of a new feature documentary, “Remembering ‘The Normal Heart’ Controversy in Springfield, MO.”

In 1989, the Southwest Missouri State University Theatre Dept. staged a production of The Normal Heart, an autobiographical play by Larry Kramer about the politics and early stages of the AIDS epidemic in New York City. The goal of the production was to bring AIDS education and awareness to students and the Springfield community. A state legislator formed a coalition called “Citizens Demanding Standards” with the goal of stopping the production or censoring its content. The University stood firm in its position this would violate the Constitutional rights of its students and faculty. The controversy escalated to the national stage as the battle over public funding, morality and free speech culminated in an opening night act of violence that left the community stunned. Through personal stories and archival news footage, the film explores the controversy surrounding the production and is a sobering reminder that extreme views can incite extreme actions.

After the screening, executive producer & MSU alum Patricia Moore and creative director Dax Bedell will discuss the making of the film.

Native American Heritage Month

In response to an effort by many to gain a day of recognition for the great influence American Indians have had upon the U.S., Congress designated a week of October to celebrate Native American Awareness Week in 1976. Yearly legislation was enacted to continue the tradition until August of 1990, when President Bush approved the designation of November as National American Indian Heritage Month. Each year a similar proclamation is issued. President Clinton noted in 1996, “Throughout our history, American Indian and Alaska Native peoples have been an integral part of the American character. Against all odds, America’s first peoples have endured, and they remain a vital cultural, political, social, and moral presence.” November is an appropriate month for the celebration because it is traditionally a time when many American Indians hold fall harvest and world-renewal ceremonies, powwows, dances, and various feasts. The holiday recognizes hundreds of different tribes and approximately 250 languages, and celebrates the history, tradition, and values of American Indians. National American Indian Heritage Month serves as a reminder of the positive effect native peoples have had on the cultural development and growth of the U.S., as well as the struggles and challenges they have faced. More information

BRIAN REGAN

7:00 PM – 8:30 PM, November 20, 2016

Brian Regan is one of the most respected comedians in the country, earning praise from the press, the public, and fellow comedians.  On September 26, 2015, he made history with the Comedy Central broadcast of Brian Regan: Live from Radio City Music Hall – the first ever live broadcast of a stand-up special in Comedy Central’s history.  His performance was critically acclaimed, with Vanity Fair calling Regan “the funniest stand-up alive.”  The special is now available on CD, DVD, or as an audio or video download.

Currently a regular on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, Regan made 28 appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman, the most of any comic in the show’s 22 years on CBS.  Regan made a scene-stealing cameo in Christ Rock’s film Top Five, and he was seen in Seinfeid’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.  But it is stand-up comedy that is Brian’s focus, as he visits close to 100 cities each year, selling out some of the most beautiful venues on the continent.

Information and Deadlines



National Disability Employment Awareness Month

In 1988, Congress designated each October as National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM). The Office of Disability Employment Policy has the lead in planning NDEAM activities and materials to increase the public’s awareness of the contributions and skills of American workers with disabilities. Various programs carried out throughout the month also highlight the specific employment barriers that still need to be addressed and removed.

This effort to educate the American public about issues related to disability and employment actually began in 1945, when Congress enacted a law declaring the first week in October each year “National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week.” In 1962, the word “physically” was removed to acknowledge the employment needs and contributions of individuals with all types of disabilities.

LGBT History Month

LGBT History Month is a month-long annual observance of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender history, and the history of the gay rights and related civil rights movements. It is observed during October in the United States, to include National Coming Out Day on October 11. LGBT History Month originated in the United States and was first celebrated in 1994. It was founded by Missouri high-school history teacher Rodney Wilson.

Spectrum, MSU’s LGBT & Ally Alliance, along with the Office of Multicultural Programs, provide a month-long series of events on campus to commemorate LGBT History Month. These include dances, panels, film screenings, fundraisers, discussions, art displays, and an annual talent show.

Information and Deadlines

Hispanic Heritage Month

Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.

The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402.

The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September18, respectively. Also, Columbus Day or Día de la Raza, which is October 12, falls within this 30 day period. Check the MSU Master Calendar for campus events celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month.
