SOLEJOURNEY
Director: Kate Burns & Sheila Schroeder

SoleJourney documents the protest efforts of Soulforce, a group committed to LGBT equality and justice. While examining the political policy making and rhetoric of Dr. James Dobson and Focus on the Family, a Christian organization headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the film also offers insight, strategy, and tangible instruction in the principles of nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience. Soulforce members-including founder, Rev. Dr. Mel White; co-founder, Jeff Lutes; Judy Shepard of the Matthew Shepard Foundation; the Reitan Family featured in For the Bible Tells Me So; and actor and activist Chad Allen, star of Save Me-marched over 65 miles in the summer of 2006 to confront Dr. Dobson. A culmination of two-years of advocacy and action, the film concludes with the ongoing "Focus on the Facts" campaign. Participants show how they hope to help America connect the dots between the false and defamatory rhetoric that flows from Focus on the Family and the assault on the civil liberties of LGBT people and their families.
