LGBTQIA+ Icon: Barbara Gittings

LGBTQIA+ Icon Barbara Gittings, 1932-2007 (LGBT+ activist)

” Equality means more than passing laws. The struggle is really one in the hearts and minds of the community, where it really counts.”

” Sexual preference is irrelevant to federal employment.”

 

June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual (LGBTQIA+) month. This month is a time of celebration, but also recognition of those who have participated in the journey toward equality, justice, and the freedom to love without fear. Each day of this month we will be spotlighting one of the people who has taken a stand in the struggle toward inclusion and acceptance for all.
