Forgotten Fires of Pride: LGBTQ Pioneers From Across America Speak Webinar
June 15 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join a powerful conversation with bold queer trailblazers from America’s overlooked frontlines—Lawrence, Champaign, Chicago, Boulder, Boston, and Northwestern. They’ll unpack the personal and political battles that defined their lives, reflect on today’s urgent threats, and chart a path forward by turning hard-won history into strategy for tomorrow’s resistance.
This is not nostalgia—it’s a call to action. Come to remember, reckon, and organize. Zoom information to follow.
Featuring:
Maher Ahmad (Northwestern Gay Liberation), Albert Williams (Chicago Gay Liberation), John Bolin (Lawrence GLF), Jeff Graubart (Champaign GLF), Thom Nickels (Boston and Boulder GLF)
Facilitated by: August Bernadicou (The LGBTQ History Project)
