A podcast focused on LGBTQ+ history presented by Joe Bushey (also known as Photojoejoe). Joe discusses both the triumphs and horrors that the LGBTQ+ community has experienced throughout history. He actively works to make sure his sources and knowledge come from diverse voices and experiences. The history of the community is built on intersectionality and Joe makes sure that is the forefront of his research. "Remember, you living and thriving as an LGBTQ+ person is making history! So keep doing that shit!” - Joe

Two Riots and a Protest

This episode I talk about the 3 major events that set the stage for the Stonewall Riots. The Cooper Do-Nut Riot, the Compton Cafeteria Riot, and the Black Cat Tavern Protest. I also get into important context around the outcomes of each event.
