Social workers are compelled by their Code of Ethics to uphold the dignity and worth of every person and to challenge injustice where they see its occurrence. In working with LGBTQ persons, Mark Gianino, PhD MSW, encourages social workers to move beyond mere tolerance, and toward an integration of knowledge, skills assessment and intervention as well as advocacy within agencies and beyond. In two demonstration sessions featuring the same client, we first see Mark display a lack of awareness and skills when working with his client, who identifies as gender queer. This “blooper” session is followed by a second, corrected, “best practices” session where the original mistakes are averted, and an affirmative approach is shown. Mark Gianino is Clinical Associate Professor of Clinical Practice at Boston University’s School of Social Work. His research interests include gay and lesbian parenthood, transracial adoption, suicide assessment and intervention, and education and training in group work. Dr. Gianino has worked for over 30 years as as a clinician, supervisor, and administrator in outpatient and inpatient mental health settings as well as group and independent private practice.

Filmed over the course of twelve months, The Amish: Shunned follows seven former members of the Amish community as they reflect on their decisions to leave one of the most closed and tightly-knit communities in the United States. Estranged from family, the ex-Amish find themselves struggling to understand and make their way in modern America. Interwoven through the stories are the voices of Amish men and women who remain staunchly loyal to their traditions and faith. They explain the importance of obedience, the strong ties that bind their communities together, and the pain they endure when a loved one falls away.

More than four decades of 20th-century America are filtered through Lange’s life and lens — her creations and achievements, her tragedies and losses. Known for her powerful images from the Great Depression, her haunting "Migrant Mother" remains emblematic of that period. In 1936, when photographs of the poverty-stricken mother of seven, stranded in a camp in California, were published, a national awareness began. As America matured into a world power, Lange continued to bear witness — mass migration, increasing urbanization and the cost of war at home — bringing subjects alive, transmitting raw emotions and capturing the human condition. This film is made by Dyanna Taylor, Lange’s granddaughter, who began her artistic vision, literally, at Lange’s feet.
