Update: 2024-06-12
Description
Join us on a journey to Roanoke, Virginia, a small city in the Appalachian South with a vibrant, untold queer history. Despite its conservative surroundings, Roanoke stands as a resilient hub for LGBTQ+ life. In this episode, we welcome Dr. Samantha Rosenthal, author of "Living Queer History, Remembrance and Belonging in a Southern City." Through a blend of personal memoir and meticulous historical research, Samantha illuminates the hidden stories of Roanoke's LGBTQ+ community. We'll explore how these local histories enrich our understanding of American queer history and inspire a more inclusive future. Tune in for a compelling narrative of remembrance, resilience, and belonging.
