Which stories are left out of the history books? What's in the documents omitted from the “official” record? And what happens when we go in search of people's hidden lives? Today's book is No Way, They Were Gay? Hidden Lives and Secret Loves (Zest Books, 2021), by Lee Wind, in which he reminds us that “history” was crafted by the people who recorded it. And sometimes, those historians were biased against, didn't see, or couldn't even imagine anyone different from themselves. That means that history has often left out the stories of LGBTQIA+ people: men who loved men, women who loved women, people who loved without regard to gender, and people who lived outside gender boundaries. Historians have even censored the lives and loves of some of the world's most famous people, from William Shakespeare and Pharaoh Hatshepsut to Cary Grant and Eleanor Roosevelt. Throughout the text, Lee Wind shares primary sources—poetry, memoir, news clippings, and images of ancient artwork—and explores the hidden (and often surprising) Queer lives and loves of two dozen historical figures. No Way, They Were Gay was honored as a Junior Library Guild Gold Standard selection, and was selected for the Chicago Public Library's 2021 Best of the Best Books list. Our guest is: Lee Wind, who writes stories that center marginalized kids and teens and celebrate their power to change the world. Closeted until his 20s, Lee writes the books that would have changed his life as a young Gay kid. His Masters Degree from Harvard didn't include blueprints for a time machine to go back and tell these stories to himself, so Lee pays it forward with a popular blog with over 3 million page views (I'm Here. I'm Queer. What The Hell Do I Read?) and books for kids and teens. He is the author of No Way, They Were Gay? His day-job is for the Independent Book Publishers Association (as their Chief Content Officer), and for the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (as their official blogger). Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who holds a PhD in history, which she uses to explore what stories we tell and what happens to those we never tell.

Interviews with pioneers in business and social impact - Business Fights Poverty Spotlight
What is the economic cost of LGBTI+ exclusion? Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex or Questioning (LGBTI+) people are among the most marginalised and excluded groups but what does this mean for business around the world? This podcast examines the opportunity that fully inclusive organisations can offer. Listen in to hear from Social Impact Pioneers and leading voices on LGBTI+ inclusion: Lee Badgett and Ricardo Garcia Tafur. Lee is a professor of economics and co-director of the Center for Employment Equity at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and has recently authored ‘The Economic Case for LGBT Equality'. Her research and writing focus on economic inequality for LGBTI people, including wage gaps and employment discrimination. Ricardo is a regional financial inclusion specialist for the International Finance Corporate (the IFC), part of the World Bank. He's an economist specialised in international development with more than 25 years of global experience on issues related to financial inclusion, and provision of financial services to unserved and underserved segments, such as women & LGBTI+, migrants and refugee populations. As of November 2022, 33 of the 195 countries in the world, recognise same sex marriage. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex or questioning (LGBTI+) people are treated differently around the world. During this podcast conversation Lee and Ricardo show was how businesses can navigate these differences, empowering us all to make a positive difference. Lee explains: “Every country is an emerging country when it comes to LGBTI inclusion.” They talk personally about their experiences and practically how businesses can help LGBTI+ people to be their best at work. Together they examine how businesses can engage with suppliers, civil society and governments to increase inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and questioning people, communities and family members. Together they talk about the business case and benefits of a fully inclusive business environment - Ricardo summarising: “There are companies that are attracting the best talent by recruiting and supporting LGBTI people at all levels. There are companies expanding their markets to include LGBTI people and there are companies attracting investment because of their LGBTI inclusion.” Listen in to hear more about the opportunities that full inclusive organisations can offer and how to make inclusive organisations a reality.

Today's book is: Gay on God's Campus: Mobilizing for LGBT Equality at Christian Colleges and Universities (UNC Press, 2018), by Jonathan Coley. Although the LGBT movement has made rapid gains in the United States, LGBT people continue to face discrimination in faith communities. In this book, sociologist Jonathan S. Coley documents why and how student activists mobilize for greater inclusion at Christian colleges and universities. Drawing on interviews with student activists at a range of Christian institutions of higher learning, Dr. Coley shows that students, initially drawn to activism because of their own political, religious, or LGBT identities, are forming direct action groups that transform university policies, educational groups that open up campus dialogue, and solidarity groups that facilitate their members' personal growth. He also shows how these LGBT activists apply their skills and values after graduation in subsequent political campaigns, careers, and family lives, potentially serving as change agents in their faith communities for years to come. Dr. Coley's findings shed light on a new frontier of LGBT activism and challenge prevailing wisdom about the characteristics of activists, the purpose of activist groups, and ultimately the nature of activism itself. Gay on God's Campus won the 2018 Stanford M. Lyman Distinguished Book Award, from the Mid-South Sociological Association. For more information about this project's research methodology and theoretical grounding, please visit http://jonathancoley.com/book Our guest is: Dr. Jonathan Coley, an Associate Professor of Sociology at Oklahoma State University and Deputy Editor of The Sociological Quarterly. His research focuses on social movements, politics, religion, education, gender and sexuality, and race and ethnicity. His current research projects examine LGBTQ activism at Christian colleges and universities; the presence of political, religious, and social activist groups at U.S. colleges and universities (with Dhruba Das, Gabby Gomez, Jericho McElroy, and Jessica Schachle); local-level church-state relations in the United States (with Gary Adler, Damon Mayrl, and Rebecca Sager); and LGBTQ faith leaders in the United States (with Joseph Anthony). His research has been published in American Journal of Sociology, Social Forces, Sociological Forum, Mobilization, Sociology of Religion, and Sociology of Education. He is the author of Gay on God's Campus: Mobilizing for LGBT Equality at Christian Colleges and Universities. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, a historian of women and gender.

Today's book is: Gay on God's Campus: Mobilizing for LGBT Equality at Christian Colleges and Universities (UNC Press, 2018), by Jonathan Coley. Although the LGBT movement has made rapid gains in the United States, LGBT people continue to face discrimination in faith communities. In this book, sociologist Jonathan S. Coley documents why and how student activists mobilize for greater inclusion at Christian colleges and universities. Drawing on interviews with student activists at a range of Christian institutions of higher learning, Dr. Coley shows that students, initially drawn to activism because of their own political, religious, or LGBT identities, are forming direct action groups that transform university policies, educational groups that open up campus dialogue, and solidarity groups that facilitate their members' personal growth. He also shows how these LGBT activists apply their skills and values after graduation in subsequent political campaigns, careers, and family lives, potentially serving as change agents in their faith communities for years to come. Dr. Coley's findings shed light on a new frontier of LGBT activism and challenge prevailing wisdom about the characteristics of activists, the purpose of activist groups, and ultimately the nature of activism itself. Gay on God's Campus won the 2018 Stanford M. Lyman Distinguished Book Award, from the Mid-South Sociological Association.

André C. Wade is the state director for Silver State Equality. In this role he leads legislative, fundraising and political efforts in the state of Nevada. Previously he was the executive director of the Gay and Lesbian Community Center of Southern Nevada. With a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Public Administration, André has worked in human services for more than 20 years in a variety of public and nonprofit contexts including at the National Alliance to End Homelessness as a program and policy analyst. André has served on several boards and committees focused on LGBTQ equality and inclusion such as the Human Rights Campaigns (HRC) steering committee in Las Vegas, HRC's All Children's All Families program and the Cyndi Lauper's True Colors Fund. Currently, André is the chair of the advisory committee for the Nevada Office of Minority Health and Equity. A native of Las Vegas, André is a certified SMART Flow Yoga instructor who enjoys traveling and reading. As Nevada's statewide LGBTQ+ civil rights organization, Silver State Equality brings the voices of LGBTQ+ people and allies to institutions of power in Nevada and across the United States, striving to create a world that is healthy, just and fully equal for all LGBTQ+ people. Silver State Equality is a Nevada-based program affiliated with and supported by Equality California and Equality California Institute, the nation's largest statewide LGBTQ+ civil rights organization. Together, we're fighting for full LGBTQ+ equality on multiple fronts: Electing pro-equality champions, up and down the ballot; Passing pro-equality legislation in Carson City, Sacramento and Washington DC; Advancing LGBTQ+ civil rights and social justice in the courtroom; and Reducing disparities in LGBTQ+ health and well-being through education and advocacy.
In this episode of Christian Mythbusters, Father Jared tries to break the myths surrounding LGBTQIA+ Christians by sharing the stories of three leaders in the Christian church. You can hear Christian Mythbusters in the Grand Haven area on 92.1 WGHN, on Wednesdays at 10:30am and Sundays at 8:50am. You can also subscribe to the podcast on Apple here. The transcript of the episode is below, or you can listen to the audio at the bottom of the post. This is Father Jared Cramer from St. John's Episcopal Church in Grand Haven, Michigan, here with today's edition of Christian Mythbusters, a regular segment I offer to counter some common misconceptions about the Christian faith. In last week's episode, I talked about the history of PRIDE month and how the church should be an ally in pride, exploring the question from the standpoint of Scripture. To continue our engagement with Christians and PRIDE, this week I want to exit the theoretical and enter the lived world of LGBTQIA+ Christians by sharing with you a few people in the church who have been tremendous leaders and role models for the gay Christian movement. I'm using a great resource put out by Stonewall, an LGBTQIA rights organization in the United Kingdom that is named for the 1969 Stonewall uprising which marked the start of the PRIDE movement. Their motto is “acceptance without exception” and you can find out more about these and other individuals by Googling their 48-page booklet “Christian Role Models for LGBT Equality.” Rachel Mann's given name at birth was Nick because she was assigned male at birth. However, from the age of four, she always felt like she was a girl. She prayed every night growing up that she would wake up as a girl the next morning. Eventually, she rejected God because she couldn't understand how a loving God could create someone like her, with such a deep internal struggle over her gender identity. Rachel began to transition when she was 22, and it wasn't until she was 26 that she had a strong enough sense of who she was to try once more to offer herself to God, to a God who, in her words “wouldn't let me go.” She finally prayed to God, afraid of what God might say back to her, and what she heard instead of condemnation was this: “Actually, I love you, Rachel, in your deepest being and I accept you completely.' Rachel returned to the Church of England and found a spiritual home there . Seven years later, she discerned a calling to the priesthood, went to seminary, and was ordained a priest in 2006, ten years after she had returned to faith in God. Now the Reverend Rachel Mann is a Canon and Poet-in-Residence at Manchester Cathedral in England. Judith Kotzé is an identical twin who was raised in the Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa, in a family that had generations of ministers. She didn’t know she was a lesbian growing up because she was focused on her sense of calling to ministry, eventually being ordained as one of the very first women clergy in the Dutch Reformed Church. While in university, she began to realize she was attracted to women, and she prayed for God to take it away , to give her the gift of celibacy. She was ordained and, after four years of ministry, she fell in love with a woman, making it clear that celibacy was not her calling. Eventually, Judith came to the belief that love is love and in 2000 met the woman who is now her partner. They married in 2007. She didn't think her parents would come to the wedding and when she did it was a milestone for the entire famil...

House set to vote on anti-religious liberty, pro-LGBT Equality Act
Mark Segal talks about being at Stonewall in 1969, how it unified the LGBTQ+ community, and the special ingredient that underlies all of his activist work: humor. Mark is the author of And Then I Danced: Traveling the Road to LGBT Equality. LGBTQ&A is hosted by Jeffrey Masters and produced by The Advocate magazine, in partnership with GLAAD. @lgbtqpod
Gay Rights Activist Mark Segal was just 18 years old when he found himself on the front lines of the Stonewall riots of 1969. He went on to help form the gay liberation front that same year and became a member of the Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day committee, which organized the first gay pride parade in 1970. Segal is the founder and former president of the National Gay Newspaper Guild, founder of the Philadelphia Gay News, and author of the memoir. In our discussion for Instinct Magazine, Mark reflects on LGBTQ equality past and present, including his thoughts on then-President Donald Trump. And Then I Danced: Traveling the Road to LGBT Equality
The Christian Right have very strong opinions regarding the LGBTQ community and denounce their lifestyle in a public fashion. But has it been effective in the past? In this episode, I describe various anti-gay activists and how their activism didn't exactly provide them with the results they wanted. Show Notes: Coley, Jonathan S. 2018.

It's been an incredibly stressful six months but I'm here to tell you that what's helped me navigate these trying times the most - meditation. And when I tell you that I have tried to find the time and patience to meditate for – ever – I finally discovered an app that's got me into the regular practice of meditating. It's call ten percent happier – and I speak to the producer of the ten percent happier podcast Samuel johns.https://www.tenpercent.com/First – the road to marriage equality and LGBTQ+ rights often said to have started during the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in NY City.

Dans cet épisode de DigiClub powered by Topnet, nous avons invité Badreddine Ouali, PDG de Vermeg et Président de la Fondation Tunisie pour le Développement, qui a lancé le premier centre Elife à Seliana en partenariat avec Topnet et Tunisie Telecom. Ce centre se veut une plateforme de formation pour les diplômés des ISET pour obtenir un diplôme français qui leur permettra de trouver plus facilement un travail, notamment via le réseau de l'association des grandes entreprises TIC d'offshoring et nearshoring en Tunisie : TACT. Dans son interview, il a donné son avis sur la grande problématique du Turn Over chez les entreprises TIC tunisiennes. Parmi les solutions qu'il a déjà commencé à appliquer chez Vermeg, c'est créer un "Safe Space" à l'intérieur de l'entreprise pour tout le monde. Il a, par ailleurs, annoncé que Vermeg est la première entreprise tunisienne à obtenir le label "Best Places To Work for LGBT Equality". Son entreprise s'engage même à payer les frais d'opération pour ses employés transsexuels. Badereddine Ouali est aussi le président de Smart Tunisia. Il a parlé de la genèse de ce projet ainsi que de ses Challenges. En 2ème partie du podcast, nous avons invité Emna Mizouni, une grande activiste des droits digitaux en Tunisie et qui vient d'obtenir l'Award de Wikimedian of the Year.

In July 1969, the Stonewall Inn was raided by the police's so-called, Public Morals Squad. This was normal at the time, but what's significant about this occurrence is the fact that this time the people stood up and fought back. This moment is marked as the start of the LGBTQ movement as we know it today. One year later Pride was born. Mark Segal was present at the riots of Stonewall Inn and became an activist and a well-known figure in the fight for human rights by highjacking Walter Cronkite's live CBS broadcast to as many as 66 million Americans. He then founded the Philadephia Gay News in 1976 and is still running the paper. He has also, amongst many things, authored the book "And Then I Danced: Traveling the Road to LGBT Equality", as well as collaborated with Barack Obama in a $19 million housing project for the communities senior citizens.We are also joined by Juliet Atto, who is a journalist and the co-founder of the community Black Queers Sweden. Together they teach us about the once suppressed history, the modern fight for human rights, and the future of community forming and belonging.

Journalist Mark Segal's came of age during the earliest days of the gay rights movement. His illuminating and moving memoir is titled "And then I Danced: Traveling the Road to LGBT Equality."

On 6 September, the Indian Supreme Court decriminalised homosexuality when it ruled on Section 377 of its penal code. The historic ruling on this colonial-era law gave a boost to Singapore’s LGBT movement, prompting a renewed push to repeal Section 377A of Singapore’s Penal Code.

How do students become LGBT activists at Christian Universities and Colleges? And what is the impact on the school but also on the activists themselves? In his new book, Gay on God's Campus: Mobilizing for LGBT Equality at Christian Colleges and Universities (University of North Carolina Press, 2018), Jonathan S. Coley uses interviews with LGBT activists on Christian campuses and other sources of data to answer these questions. LGBT activists in his study fall into three participant identities which tie to the “group ethos” he discovers. These typologies help to understand the ways in which students participate as activists but also how they come to know themselves. In addition, Coley situates his findings in the literature but also explains how his study differs and expands on previous findings. In general, he finds that “fit” is important to the activists and that only about a third of his participants fall into traditional definitions of activists. Coley also finds that denomination plays a key role in the development and reaction of activists groups on campus. Overall, this book gives a clear picture of LGBT activists on Christian university and college campuses. This book will be enjoyed by sociologists in general, but especially by those interested in social movements, religion, sexuality, and higher education. This book would be useful in a graduate level or higher level undergraduate social movements course given the clear organization of theory and examples used throughout the book and specifically in the tables.

Tim and John head to Philadelphia with Volkswagen to attend the 2017 Out & Equal Workplace Advocates Summit. Aside from being the first chance to experience the new VW Tiguan and Atlas SUVs, Tim and John were able to experience first hand how large the Out & Equal conference has grown since their last visit to the summit in Los Angeles. It's great to see so many Fortune 500 companies in attendance supporting LGBT Equality in the workplace. Not to brag, but VW was one of only four auto manufacturers in attendance, and they stole the show with their display adjacent to the conference entrance and registration. Kudos to the VW Team for being very visible and proud! Our guests this week include VW's own Machelle Williams and Dave Dunlap, along with the Founder and CEO of Out & Equal, Selisse Berry.

Clostridium difficile (klos-TRID-e-um dif-uh-SEEL), often called C. difficile or C. diff impacts 453,000 people every year. And with 29,000 associated deaths, it takes more lives than AIDS and drunk-driving combined. Yet, most people have never even heard of it. That's a big problem because you can't protect yourself from a threat when you don't even know it exists. The impact on the business of healthcare is significant too. A study published in the American Journal of Infection Control found that C. diff-associated diarrhea (CDAD) increases hospital costs by 40% per case (an average of $7,285 ) and puts those infected at high risk for longer hospital stays and readmissions. Some even believe those numbers are likely underestimated. C. diff presents us with an interesting problem at the cross-section of Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC). It's an environmental bacterium that's found pretty much everywhere and is difficult to kill, but it's usually held in check by the good bacteria in our bodies. The problem usually occurs when a patient is in a weakened state from some other healthcare intervention. That may be an antibiotic treatment for another healthcare-associated infection or chemotherapy, etc. With our bodies in a weakened state and our good bacteria depleted by antibiotics, we become susceptible to C. diff. So, it's important that we execute on all the other IPAC practices like proper hand hygiene and surface cleaning in the hospital so that, as our guest puts it, we can disrupt the chain of events that allow to C. diff to proliferate. Episode 005 (part 4 of our IPAC series): On this episode, we're joined by the co-founder and Executive Director of the Peggy Lillis Foundation (PLF), Christian John Lillis. Like so many people who've dedicated their lives to driving change in the healthcare industry, Christian has a very powerful "why". He lost his mother to a clostridium difficile (C. diff) infection in April 2010. After struggling with the fact that he lost his mother to a disease he never heard of, and later finding out that it impacts so many people, Christian, along with his brother Liam, founded PLF and are building a nationwide C. diff awareness movement by educating the public, empowering advocates and shaping policy. Christian gives us a deep and personal take on his family's experience with C. Diff and the work that the Peggy Lillis Foundation is doing to help. We discuss: What is clostridium difficile (C. diff)? Is C. diff a Healthcare-Associated Infection (HAI) or something else? How important are hand hygiene and environmental cleaning in preventing the spread of C. diff? Why haven't more people heard of C. diff? Why is it so hard to measure the true impact of C. diff on our health system? How do we fix that? Why do only some states require reporting on outbreaks? How does that affect the business of healthcare? How does it affect the patients? What is the Prevention and Public Health Fund? Why is it under fire and what is the impact to the CDC, states and beyond? What is the financial impact of C. diff? Christian's story is powerful and it's full of wisdom that can help patients, families, and providers. In our quest to unravel the business of healthcare, it's important to understand the people we serve and how our work impacts their lives. This is a crash course and I hope it touches you as it did me. Enjoy. ~Don Lee About Christian John Lillis Christian John Lillis is executive director of The Peggy Lillis Foundation (PLF), which he co-founded with his brother, Liam, following the death of their mother from a clostridium difficile (C. diff) infection in April 2010.

Kathryn interviews Philadelphia Gay News Founder Mark Segal, author of “And Then I Danced: Traveling the Road to LGBT Equality”. On December 11, 1973 Segal disrupted the live broadcast of the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite by sitting on Cronkite's desk yelling, “Gays protest CBS prejudice!” directly into the camera. This was watched live by 60% of American households, presenting many with their first concept of gay rights. 40 years later, Segal and his fiancé́ danced together at the White House to the Marine Corps band. Kathryn also interviews retired Navy SEAL Clint Emerson, author of “100 Deadly Skills: The SEAL Operative's Guide to Eluding Pursuers, Evading Capture, and Surviving Any Dangerous Situation”. This book includes understanding the psychology of survival to prevent tracking, immobilize bad guys, and ultimately make your life significantly safer. Emerson spent 20 years operating globally while attached to SEAL Team Three, NSA and the elite SEAL Team Six.

Louisville is looking pretty good this week! We recently got a 66% on the Human Rights Campaign's Municipal Equality Index—higher than the national average of 59%, and the highest rating of any city in Kentucky. The index looks at factors like non-discrimination laws, domestic partner benefits, openly gay elected officials, and more, and largely finds cities leading the way in the US, while states sometimes lag behind. This week we're joined by Cathryn Oakley of the HRC, who tells us more about the methodology, and how this year's study compares to previous years. In Juicy Fruit, we cover more Louisville news: WFPL health reporter Ja'Nel Johnson sits in to tell us about an encouraging story from the University of Louisville medical school. It will be the first med school in the nation to include specific instruction on treating LGBTQ patients. In other hot (and medical) topics, an employee of Norton Healthcare was fired after her racist facebook post went viral (including a share from our own Jaison Gardner, who was mentioned in the subsequent media coverage). Toni Morrison has a new novel coming out in the Spring, and last week was also the anniversary of James Baldwin's death, so we spend some time this week showing respect to these legends of Black literature and discussing the significance of their works. And finally, the Wall Street Journal's arts & entertainment blog, The Speakeasy, released its list of The 15 Best Pop Culture Moments of 2014. Some we totally got (the Oscar selfie, "Adele Dazeem," Pharrell's hat), and others we barely even registered this year (President Obama on Between Two Ferns, Katy Perry dressing as a Cheeto, something about Sharknado 2?). We didn't have time to include it all in this week's show, so the pop culture moments conversation is bonus fruit this week: https://soundcloud.com/strangefruitpod/bonus-fruit-the-wall-street-journals-15-best-pop-culture-moments-of-2014
Our guest speaker Jay Maddock, Executive Director of the Kalamazoo Gay and Lesbian Resource Center (KGLRC), will explain the need for LGBT visibility within the larger community in order to secure equal rights and protections for LGBT citizens. He will emphasize the important roles that allies hold and talk about bullying and recent crimes and discrimination against LGBT persons including the very recently proposed amendment to the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act to exclude protections for Transgender persons.
