Both of these film discuss the rights of individuals to serve the public while living an open and honest life. Ask Not looks from a macro-perspective at the challenges of the "don't ask, don't tell" federal policy prohibiting openly gay individuals from serving in the U.S. armed forces. It follows young people around the country who try to enlist while disclosing that they are gay and introduces three ex-military men who were discharged for being gay and now speak to various groups nationwide. The film is poignant and thought provoking and would lend itself to a very solid discussion about discrimination and the rights of the individual in the military.
