Senior Prom: LGBTQ+ Seniors Get the Prom of Their Dreams | PBS Short Docs

[@pbsvoices]

Happy Pride, everyone! How are you celebrating???

[@fish_R_stinky69]

I'm not!😁

[@cliftonbowers6376]

On da view today 😮

[@jessicaclakley3691]

Thank you to all the kings, queens, trans, asexual and/or wherever you end up on the spectrum for being courageous enough to love yourselves and your kind of love to stand up against discrimination, abuse and ostracization

[@fish_R_stinky69]

Aww so sweet!😁

[@sailorm4y4ri]

I’m glad to see all the elderly re-experiencing one of the most common beautiful moments in life. I’m glad their caregiving home and local organizers host that for them

"I'm a created human being. I have a right to be here." Such a powerful statement. Happy Pride month everyone!! 🎉🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️

[@pbsvoices]

We love that quote, too. Thanks for watching, Glynnis. Happy Pride!

[@namewithay]

We have always existed. Happy pride, everyone.

[@Lily78579]

Love this💕💕 nothing is better than seeing joy in the eyes of our elders

[@TrekkieBrie]

Not me crying at work.

[@raulfigueroa588]

Wonderful! Brings me a lot of joy. My heart goes to everyone who has been and felt misunderstood.

[@raybonsignore5290]

That priest has a heart big enough for the whole world. It makes me sad to think that these people had to go through so much just for normalcy and only found it in their later years. Imagine all the years of happiness stripped away because people couldn't accept that people can be different. This is only a handful of people. There's still so many people who never got this experience and lived their whole lives in fear and that's not ok.

[@yulebones]

Happy pride to us all, and thank you to those who helped us get where we are now!

[@pbsvoices]

Well said! Thanks for watching!

[@kali6753]

At some point, I've cried my eyes out. It was so strong, so beautiful and so RIGHT.

[@TrishaLaszlo]

Wonderful story. I'm so glad the LA LGBT Center is doing this important work for the seniors.

[@ruairim2283]

Before I go to sleep drunkenly, I just wanna say that existing is the best

[@TheCowgirlgem]

This makes me soooo happy!!!! I'm in my mid 30's and things have improved so much since i was a kid and i hope they improve the same amount for current kids

[@kenyettab5126]

This is one of the best things I've seen ever! ❤️❤️❤️

This is awesome and inspiring to hear that it's never too late

[@Vhagaryen]

So beautiful! I'm upset at the education system of the US. There's this rich LGBTQ+ history all over the country spanning decades that we were never taught in school! There's so much history I've learned only in the past several years. Thanks to these people that endured so much pain so I can be out and proud today!

[@mourndogs]

This is beautiful. All the love and respect for our elders

[@tarinemarine7635]

I'm tearing from so much joy Happy pride my lovelies

[@PogieJoe]

Booo

[@lillithdv8]

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, it’s for everyone. We should strive to celebrate our differences and give one another the opportunity to fulfil these goals. Happy Pride month

[@charlesphilips2045]

Why am I crying so much?

[@TheUnabashedQueer]

This is beautiful. We need to show more reverence toward our elders.

[@SkyeRangerNick]

[@brittneybrisbin744]

Seeing videos like this, of senior citizens getting to recreate moments of youth that they couldn't participate in as their true selves, just fills my heart with joy. They get to show up as their true selves now, and it must be such a happy, liberating moment. I'm so grateful to every person who dared to be themselves before me, because they paved the way for me to be out and proud today. I'm overjoyed for them💕

[@PlayRafa2]

God has , is looking after us . This brings me to tears .

[@nealdraper3751]

What a great story, 1946 the documentary is being released this month. It's a must watch!

[@rowanfair]

I’m still sad that I went to prom with a boy in 1971, I then mostly danced with my girlfriends. It was unfair… but what was the choice? All my aunties told me I’d be sorry if I missed prom. Nope, going was a source of guilt and bad memories. This event looks fabulous (and I don’t use the f-word lightly). Thanks for sharing the joy.

[@kaylag2142]

i'm not crying you're crying

[@kimmickal]

[@hawaiianborn1044]

That's all I ever wanted & have been searching for my entire , is that one special someone to build that eternity with. ❤ It's tough being a hopeless romantic in a world 🌎 where 'hookups' are quite popular.
