Welcome to Episode 31 of the Asian American History 101 podcast! It’s PRIDE Month here in the U.S… so Gen and Ted discuss the history of PRIDE Month and celebrate a few notable Asian American and Pacific Islander LGBTQ+ activists. There are so many influential API activists in the LGBTQ+ community… from Kyoshi Kuromiya to Kitty Tsui to Gil Mangaoang... and that’s just a few of them! We also take time to talk about the work fo the National Queer Asian Pacific Islander Alliance, The Visibility Project, and the Asian Pride Project. If you’re API and looking for resources to help you come out, then check out the Coming Out resource for API. Want to learn more?
