Twin Cities Gay and Lesbian Community Oral History Project

Titles: Twin Cities Gay and Lesbian Community Oral History Project (Supplied title)

Description: These interviews look into the lives of eight people connected with the local gay/lesbian community from the 1940s to the advent of AIDS in the early 1980s. Throughout the interviews, the narrators recount: early impressions of what they thought homosexuality was, personal experiences of how they came to terms with their sexuality, where they socialized with those like themselves, and the overall social environment they experienced in the Twin Cities.
