Yes! That's right! This month is our time to celebrate our history and our community! October is our own month to look around us and honor the past, the present and prepare for the future. Equality Forum maintains the website that gives us an insight into the way we were back in the day and where we are right now. Click here to go there: http://www.lgbthistorymonth.com .
The LGBT History month site offers a different biography every day during the month of October, each one honoring a different worthy person from our gay community. While there, you can also read about who's been selected in previous years, from 2005 until the present. They offer free resources that can be downloaded and used to share with family, friends or in the classroom.
If you've never visited the LGBT History site before, plan to set aside some time and do it this month. I know you'll discover some interesting facts from our past and enjoy learning about how our community is remembering our own.
LET'S CELEBRATE!
