Heather MacDonald's BALLOT MEASURE 9 resonates still five years after seeing it for the first time. Unfortunately, this film is as relevant as ever, as it depicts an Oregon battle against gays and lesbians in painstaking detail.As rational as it is heartfelt, BALLOT MEAURE 9 is essential viewing for all Americans because MacDonald brilliantly illustrates how denying rights to one group affects us all. The most intelligent, instructive and moving documentary I have ever seen. It is a film you will want to revisit again and again and share with your friends and neighbours. Do not miss it.

Ballot measure number nine was a WONDERFUL documentary on the horrible attempt of the OCA (Oregon Citizen's Alliance) to destroy equal rights in our country. In the sense that Hitler was destroyed in W.W.II the OCA also fell, and this movie documents the moments of victory and defeats of both views. I just hope more movies like this can be produced so that more people can be frightened by the hatred that is stirring in our country because of the propaganda and fear, and insecurity of such organizations as the OCA and the Christian Coalition. Well done Heather MacDonald, and your crew, and THANK YOU.
