Start: 2024-06-27T13:00:00-04:00
Location: The Rex Theatre

The Red Scare bled into the Lavender Scare during the mid-20th century in America. The Lavender Scare was the forced dismissal and resignation of thousands of workers that stemmed from the federal workforce, due to their sexuality. The heightened tensions of Communism possibly infiltrating the federal government overshadowed this important event for American citizens who were involuntarily dismissed and ostracized based on their appearance, mannerisms, & sexual preference. This scare swept the nation but is seldom spoken of in American History. The Lavender Scare was the beginning snowball effect that led to the Civil Rights movement for the LGBTQIA+ community. NSquared Dance brings light to this event during Pride month, giving voices to those who couldn't speak for their jobs and lives. Learn. Listen. Watch. Be Moved.
