The generation that fought the hardest to come out, are going back into the closet to survive. Gen Silent, a critically acclaimed documentary, follows six LGBTQ

Johnson, Executive Director of the Rainbow
Community Center of Contra Costa County.

His work has been featured in The New York Times, The Atlantic, VICE and NPR’s Morning Edition among others.

LGBTQ history movements.
