- This program is part of our Good Lit series, underwritten by the Bernard Osher Foundation.
Join Dustin Lance Black, influential LGBTQ+ activist and the Academy Award-winning screenwriter behind Milk, as he reveals his unexpectedly conservative origins in his new memoir, Mama’s Boy: A Story from Our Americas, providing personal and philosophical insight into the complicated divide between red and blue America.
Black’s memoir chronicles his coming of age in a military, Mormon household in Texas and moving to more liberal California after his mother’s remarriage. Finding himself at odds with the religious and political atmosphere of his family and his community’s condemnation of his sexuality, Black kept his identity a secret. He ultimately found release and professional success in the arts and reveals that throughout his often difficult childhood, he and his mother always managed to share a powerful bond of support. When Black played an instrumental role in the overturning of California’s antigay marriage Proposition 8, she was next to him despite a lifetime of opposition.
Join Dustin Lance Black live at INFORUM as he reflects on his personal journey to self-acceptance and success and shares his unique perspective on bridging the many divides in our country today.

Lance Du bist Großartig.Lance you are great.
My mother is Acadian, and quite clear of polio. She knows every episode of Dragnet and on Lance's team along with Tom. 'You've done good boys'.
Wonderful discussion and seemingly wonderful human being in Lance! Love this and inspired by him and his work!
WOW .. what an interview and a wealth of information you gave us. i watched every minute of it as I did to your speech/questions at Cambridge(?) . Powerful Lance.... There was so much in this interview that should be shown again and again. Don 't ever lose a little of your emotional lapses to some of those personal questions you had to answer. I'll save this and watch again. Continue to speak out Lance. You have a way of explaining where you're coming from. ! This is an unbelievable talent. So, so true.... we need to listen more over the dinner table, . Why is there so much anger and hatred out there. Everyone has a right to be happy.
EVERYONE has a right to be happy.!!! Thanks again....I didn't know you had written a book..... This will be my next purchase. Sorry.... way to much verbose commentary from here. :))
No Charlie, not too much verbose commentary from you. You have spoken about Lance and his speech in a way I felt but was unable to articulate. Thank you to him and to you.
Thank you so much , Manny. I have never been known as an eloquent speaker. I enjoyed your comment. Have a great weekend.😊😊😊
Thanks Lance!
so great
I would like to see Lance and Dan Savage do an event together. They have ○ similar style, both great story tellers, and quite the same life story.
Phil served 6 months in Vietnam and lived with us after that and knew cars and Thit Ga Xao Dam Guag Sa with extra lemon. I love Phil.
Black is a realistic source of cold war poetry and prose of modern history. A god fearing spirit is someone to attach to as deep as heavy metal music.
The book is beautiful,the story is sad but wonderful, totally love this guy
D L B came from a religious background. Jesus did not point fingers, judge others, virtue signal or take
a superior moralising standpoint. He healed people and told stories. Yes to!d stories. D L T has learned that
lesson well and put it to good use.
It's DLB Dustin Lance Black
Thank you weird girl. How embarrassing. --:)) I have corrected.
John Silverton Dustin has learned that as have others who put it to good use. Thank you
You are so good buteful man
A Mormon family in Southern Baptist country, that must have been an interesting dynamic,
Mormons and I help one another. A single partner is a life style; so is a tree to make apple pie.
How did your cousin vote in 2020😎
58:13 GUYS THATS ELIZABETH SWENSON THE NOVICE SNOWBOARDER WHO CONNED HER WAY INTO THE OLYMPICS OMG HOW IS SHE HERE ??!!!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY
lance you have to say to every parent that when you had the child you say you are a wonderful child and you are mine and you show every body and then you tell your mother or father you are gay straight trans. or what ever they are are they are still yours . you have to ask every parent do they know what it would feel like to hide who you are and be afraid to tell any body you are gay or who ever they are and have to pretend they love girls to hide who they areut and afraid what would happen if they came o.if you are straight they could bring home girls if they are straight even if they did not like any of them. you also have to tell them to change every thing like if you and your mothers sister went to disco or weeding and the slow dance came on and you wanted to ask a boy out to dance you could not do that only a girl but your mothers sister could ask every body out to the dance floor men and woman and she could ask any woman out to slow dance fast dance and then kiss her good night and no body would care or when they are meeting down the street they can hug each other but if it is a guy you could not hug and put hands around each other.
