Transcripts Presents: The Southwest Virginia LGBTQ+ Oral History Project
This week, we're presenting a pilot podcast episode from the Southwest Virginia LGBTQ+ (Plus) Oral History Project, which is based in Roanoke, Virginia, a small city in the Appalachian foothills. Gregory Samantha Rosenthal, a dedicated oral historian and public scholar, is training queer and trans people to collect stories from their peers and elders, and this podcast is derived from those oral histories. I love these voices and I love the spirit in which they're collected. The tape is sometimes gutting, but it's not without bright spots-- especially listen for the tape of "the condom lady" 20 minutes in. The Transcripts podcast is a project of the Tretter Transgender Oral History Project at the University of Minnesota Libraries. We're funded by the TAWANI Foundation and the Minnesota Humanities Innovation Lab. I'm producer Cassius Adair.
