Nature Boost Friday: The Intertwined Histories of the Military and the Bay Area’s LGBTQ
Share
On Friday, June 25, we hosted a presentation and a panel discussion with local San Francisco historians and National Park Service rangers to understand the complex connection between the LGBTQ+ community and the military in the Bay Area. From a population boom to discriminatory practices, the military had a lasting impact on the growth of the LGBTQ+ community. Watch the recording to learn about the history of local and national LGBTQ+ activism, from organizing in local bars to protesting in the streets and so many milestones in between.
Nature Boost Fridays are part of Summer Stride, a partnership of the San Francisco Public Library, National Park Service, Presidio Trust, and the Parks Conservancy that helps you have reading and educational adventures in your national park sites.
