American Circumcision, a feature-length documentary about the debate over circumcision in this country that will make its Denver debut on April 9, features an appearance by Gillian Longley, state coordinator for Colorado Advocates for Body Integrity and Children's Rights, shorthanded as Colorado ABC. Although little known by the general public, the group is the one of the main reasons why Colorado Medicaid didn't pay for circumcisions in the state during most of this decade to date, and Longley, a nurse by training, remains dedicated to getting the message out about a procedure she sees as cruel, unneeded and sometimes dangerous.
