LGBTQ+ History in the US from 1951 - 2015

Abstract

The LGBTQ+ community has a rich history encompassing the entire span and range of human history. This project focuses on the struggle for equal rights in the United States, which begins in 1951. It is important to understand the history of underrepresented groups, especially when they have made such an impact on modern culture. Using firsthand accounts from elders, statistics, and activism history archives, the author tells the history of the LGBTQ+ community.
