The repertoire of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Choir San Diego is primarily gospel, both traditional and contemporary. Unlike traditional gospel choirs, we include a part for bass and baritone. The choir is also proficient in Negro spirituals, anthems, and oratorios. With the exception of classical pieces and some Negro spiritual arrangements, the music is taught by rote, after the oral tradition from which the music comes. Participants are non-auditioned, needing only to be able to sing in tune. Some vocal training is provided and some coaching for those who don’t read music. Our purpose is to raise funds through a series of concerts for educational grants that we distribute to aspiring college-bound high school majors in Visual and Performing Arts from the San Diego County area. The Choir will be joined by First UU San Diego music director Marshall Voit, who has spent 20 years studying and performing music for social justice and social change. Marshall will open the concert with a program of freedom and justice songs that he’s collected during that time, including protest music classics, original compositions, and lesser known but equally moving songs for social change.

Director: Emanuele Crialese | Runtime: 97 minutes | Year: 2022 | Rating: UR | Country: Italy | Language: Italian | Fiction Genre: Fiction, Drama, Coming-of-Age, LGBTQIA2S+ Clara (Penélope Cruz) and her emotionally distant husband Felice (Vincenzo Amato) relocate to Rome to raise a family. Even though the paint is fresh, and the appliances are new, the crushing expectations around marriage, desire, and gender in the early 1970s remain as traditional as ever. Their children Andrew (played by newcomer Luana Giuliani), Gino, and Diana are likewise poised at a precipice, on the verge of adolescence, with nothing but their imaginations to defuse family tensions. The eldest child, Andrew (nicknamed Adri by his parents), yearns for another life – an outsized, vibrantly-realized vision of a world where he gets to live as the boy he knows himself to be. Without an accepted vocabulary for talking about his transgender identity, Andrew tells adults that he’s an alien from another galaxy and makes a habit of running away to pursue a local Roma girl who accepts his boyhood at face value. As an outsider ostracized for her own eccentricities, Clara instinctively strives to protect her son despite not fully understanding him. An effortlessly moving film about growing up, fitting in, and breaking the mold, L’immensita is as freewheeling and creative as its central characters, mixing genres and staging musical numbers out of thin air. Critic Quotes: “I have seen several trans coming-of-age films — few with this amount of specificity, nuance, and imagination.” - Autostraddle Showtimes: Friday, June 16, 2023: 12:00 Saturday, June 17, 2023: 3:30, 8:00 Sunday, June 18, 2023: 12:00, 5:00 Monday, June 19, 2023: 3:05, 7:15 Tuesday, June 20, 2023: 12:30, 4:40 Wednesday, June 21, 2023: 2:20, 4:30 Thursday, June 22, 2023: 1:00, 5:10 For more information visit: digitalgym.org Stay Connected on Social Media Instagram / Facebook
