Pride Movie Night: Becoming Johanna

Posted by crista on

Join Yolo County Library and the Davis Phoenix Coalition for a screening of the award-winning documentary Becoming Johanna. 

She did whatever was necessary to be true to herself and thrive. Becoming Johanna: a film by Jonathan Skurnik.

Becoming Johanna is a compelling story that follows the struggles transgender teens face every day. In the end, Johanna refuses to let her mother’s rejection define her life and she continues the journey toward becoming comfortable in her own skin. Johanna’s story is as beautiful as she is, and will leave you hopeful that we can build communities that accept all of our children just the way they are.
