GLSEN Richmond and GCCR in celebration of Black History Month invite you to the screening of “Tiny and Ruby:  Hell Divin’ Women” in the Event Hall on Saturday, February 13 from 4 pm – 6 pm.   This will include a reception and time for discussion led by internationally acclaimed Blues artist Gaye Adegbalola.  Donations will be accepted.Profiling legendary jazz trumpeter Tiny Davis and her partner of over 40 years, drummer-pianist Ruby Lucas, "Tiny & Ruby: Hell Divin' Women" weaves together rare jazz recordings, live performances, vintage photographs, and narrative poetry by Cheryl Clarke.  The film establishes an informal, intimate style in which 78-year-old Tiny demonstrates that her chops and humor are both quite intact. Let's a person see what being a lesbian of color was like, years ago, but also shows a great 40 year relationship and great trumpeteer! Internationally acclaimed Blues artist and expert on Women in the Blues, Gaye Adegbalola will lead a discussion after the movie.  Come out and meet Gaye and have a chance to hear her insight about women in the blues.  Gaye has made it a mission to bring blues to the gay community and to educate and inform the Blues community about LGBTQ issues – her most recent solo endeavor was “Without Shame” which seeks to fulfill that mission.
Location : GCCR Event Hall, 1407 Sherwood Avenue, Richmond, VA 23220
