The LGBTQ History Project elucidates LGBTQ activists' dark histories. It is a spotlight on the catalysts who fought in the front-lines, in the back-lines and in the trenches of civil rights. The LGBTQ History Project is an opportunity for them to tell their stories in their own words. It is an opportunity for them to tell them for their first time, for their last time and to the world. In 2020, the LBGTQ History Project launched the QueerCore Podcast which features exclusive and archival interviews.
