Happy LGBTQIA2S+ History Month!

A Living History of the LGBT Movement Since The 1800s In collaboration with AARP, we present "A of the LGBT Movement" powered by AARP - a storytelling series honoring past, present and future hero...

Today is National Coming Out Day - started on this day 34 years ago in 1988! Happy Coming Out Day!

"National Coming Out Day was founded on October 11, 1988 - by Robert Eichsberg & Jean O’Leary, marking the anniversary of the 1987 March on Washington for Le***an & Gay Rights - aimed at showing the public that LGBT people are everywhere.

Eichsberg, who died in 1995 of complications from AIDS, said, 'Most people think they don’t know anyone Gay or Le***an, and in fact everybody does. It is imperative that we come out and let people know who we are and disabuse them of their fears and stereotypes.'

And that is the point of National Coming Out Day – to let people see us, who we are, people they already like, know, and respect – who happen to be Gay, Le***an, Bisexual, or Transgender. That is our strongest tool in the movement toward full human rights."

If you see Joe Torres, congratulate him on all the excellent work he does in both the Pride Center and First Nations Studies Department at UWGB! Thank you Joe for all of your contributions to our campus. We are so glad we get to work with you again this year! 💜

Happy Indigenous People's Day - 2022!

Today is Indigenous Peoples' Day!

The place we now call Wisconsin is the ancestral land of many Native nations who call this place home, and we are honored to be a place of stories, memory, and living tradition for all. Today, Wisconsin is home to twelve Native nations.

Indigenous people are an inextricable part of Wisconsin’s past and present, and yet, in so many damaging ways, they have been missing from the stories we tell. There are no references to Indigenous people on our state flag, for example. We too often talk about pioneers coming to this state without acknowledging the violent removal of Indigenous people that made European immigration possible. And often history lessons fail to communicate that people of Native nations are not just part of the past — they are a crucial part of Wisconsin today!

We take this day to acknowledge the Indigenous people of Wisconsin, the past, current, and future stewards of this land we stand on.

Happy LGBTQIA2S+ History Month - 2022!

We recommend checking this book out on Wisconsin LGBTQ history by R. Richard Wagner. He was here a few years ago at UWGB and did a terrific presentation on campus. There is also a second volume we have featured in the pics below.

Synopsis taken from the lovely folks at the Wisconsin LGBTQ History Project - an awesome group to follow for history: In 2019, Madison LGBT activist and author R. Richard Wagner published the book "We've Been Here All Along", the first of two groundbreaking books. This first volume provides an illuminating and nuanced picture of Wisconsin's early gay history from the reporting on the Oscar Wilde trials of 1895 to the landmark Stonewall Riots of 1969. Throughout these decades, gay Wisconsinites developed identities, created support networks, and found ways to thrive in their communities despite various forms of suppression--from the anti-vice crusades of the early twentieth century, to the post-war labeling of homosexuality as an illness, to the Lavender Scare of the 1950s.

The book was published by Wisconsin Historical Society Press.
Wagner followed up on this book with another book in mid-2020. "Coming Out, Moving Forward: Wisconsin's Recent Gay History", which outlined the challenges that LGBT Wisconsinites faced in their efforts to right past oppression and secure equality in the post-Stonewall period between 1969 and 2000. During this era, Wisconsin made history as the first state to enact a gay rights law prohibiting discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations on the basis of sexual orientation. It also became the first state to elect three openly gay/lesbian persons to Congress.

Sadly, R. Richard Wagner passed away in 2021, so if he had another book in mind, it will not come to pass. His two books however are an invaluable resource documenting critical parts of Wisconsin's LGBTQ development and history.
