Join The History Project and Zoya Davis-Hamilton on Zoom for an overview of the history of finding queer community from the puritans through the creation of organizations like the Mattachine Society, Daughters of Bilitis, the Bisexual Resource Center, and more. We'll continue with a discussion of how queer people find one another today and explore terms like friends of Dorothy and Boston marriage.
