When We Rise (2017)
10/10
Not a Corny Lifetime movie...

First I want to say is that I am shocked that ABC would make such a long mini series about the history of gay people. Usually u get this on HBO or Showtime so thank you ABC. The only thing that bothered me was that they had a language warning at the beginning of each episode. I don't recall any at all. The kissing and sexual scenes were tastefully done and respectful but honest too. Very refreshing.

There was not a fake moment in the series. I was worried that they were going to slant this to make the republicans evil and the Clintons and Obama rock Gods but they didn't. They did not slant at all and they did not make gays look perfect either but human and real.

At the end you feel like you just went through the decades that the real characters went through yourself.

Dustin you deserve the Emmy and any other award you are nominated for.

Honest and truthful.

Wonderful....
