RECLAIM THE FLAG by Alexis Bittar & Bruce Cohen

About #ReclaimTheFlag: Once an emblem of our shared humanity, the historic American flag has now become synonymous with fear for many Americans—citizens whose rights are in uncertain flux. Together, renowned designer Alexis Bittar and Academy Award-winning producer Bruce Cohen have created a short documentary showcasing a vast array of nearly 50 leaders and luminaries from the LGBTQ+ community—spanning age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and profession–to raise a vital question: how do we reclaim the American flag?
