This week, Mx. Dizzy and Pup Rekkr talk about some Queer History in the Kinky Tavern’s mini-series “Queer History!” We started our research for this portion of Queer History at the beginning of the “new world,” America and plan to cover up til the most recent events. Of course, so many of the timelines found are very ethnocentric to America and there’s not a wealth of easily found information for other areas of the world, though we do plan to dig them up to share with you as we continue this series! So, our story begins (in this episode) with the sexy sixties! We talk about the times of the Vietnam War, the second wave of feminism in America, the Stonewall riots, and more! Through the salacious seventies, we cover the beginning of Pride parades, Roe v Wade, “Save the Children” and several other topics including brief spotlights on several activists, authors, and other important people in the movement toward equal human rights.
