The Margin is Now the Center: Contested Bodies on Screen is an exploration of Queer, Birthing and Marginalized bodies.

This short film/video program, part of Towson University’s month-long Summer at The Center Festival, will showcase work from artists and activists who are exploring what it means to be embodied and fully accepting of oneself during a time when marginalized bodies are actively being attacked politically and socially.

In collaboration with Rooted, a black Queer healing collective in Baltimore, this three-hour event will include short film screenings followed by community conversations with the creators and activists focused on embodiment practices
