‘Sex Ed and the State’ Screening Sept. 20

A screening of “Sex Ed and the State,” a documentary about legislative attempts to mandate sex education in Minnesota, is slated for Sept. 20.

The film by Jim Winkle screened earlier this year. 

In a previous interview with Minnesota Monitor, Winkle said that he made the film  to “find out where [sex ed] fails in the legislative process.”

“France, England and the rest of Europe has an abortion rate about a quarter of America’s, and they have comprehensive sex ed starting in fifth grade,” he said.

The screening will be at the Riverview Theater in Minneapolis, at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 20.  Admission is free.
