Release of American Circumcision documentary

Today (August 31, 2018) marks a major milestone.  Today, a documentary that took several years to compile, fund and promote, has been released at major providers.  "This is the first documentary of its scale to comprehensively explore this cutting edge issue, which involves sex, politics, and religion, all in the most personal way possible."

It has been a pleasure and an honor to participate in the funding and promotion of this excellent show.  I am proud to have been included by Brendon Marotta.  I consider myself lucky to have been one of the very first people to get to see this at a screening in Seattle.

This documentary tackles one of the most hotly debated topics of our time.  I realize that it's a topic that touches nerves (both literally and figuratively) of every person I know.  I know that it leads many to be defensive, regardless of which side of the debate you are on.  I realize that this leads many to avoid the topic completely.  This has delayed my involvement on the topic as I fear upsetting people and putting wedges between friends, family, colleagues and myself.  However, I only wish I would have been more active on the topic sooner and I wish our financial system would have supported an earlier release of this documentary.  Alas, we may simply have not been ready for it until today.

Please trust me when I say that this documentary is as non-biased and fair as I believe anything covering this topic can be.  Please trust me when I say that this is a must-see.  I won't lie, it will stir feelings.  But, how many shows have you watched knowing well beforehand that it was going to stir feelings?  Just because this is about a very real topic that is likely to strike very close to home, please do not avoid it.  You may think you already know all that you need to know of the topic; I beg of you, please keep an open mind as I keep learning more and more as I have over the past 13 years.

There is so much I could say about this documentary, but I don't want to ruin it for you.  Please enjoy:

Oh, if you can't afford the show, please reach out.  I'll figure out a way.

  1. I'm proud of you for finding an issue you care about and pursuing it so strongly -- that's universal healthcare for me right now. I agree it's time we ask the question of this movie very consciously....
