THIS DAY IN LGBT HISTORY – DECEMBER 24

Musings of an Aging Lesbian Sarah Hurwitz shared eight Jewish social justice values to celebrate each night of Chanukah which was published by the American Jewish World Service. I will share one a day for the eight days of Chanukah. Today at Sunday begins Day 3, CHESED:  CHESED: Translated as “loving-kindness,” chesed isn’t just an emotion—it’s a kind

Today in LGBT History – June 24

As I look out of our living room windows this morning, I see such beauty! The sun is rising, the water is like glass, and the birds are doing their morning fishing. Today is Saturday, June 24th, the day of our lesbian Pride brunch. By 11 am there will be about 30 women from around

Today in LGBT History – June 23

Last night Sarah Schulman gave a talk at the AIDS Memorial. It was entitled LET THE RECORD SHOW: LOSING THE TRUE HISTORY OF AIDS. It’s a long powerful, heartfelt, heart-rendering talk. Find it on her Facebook page by clicking here and read it. Her last line is “What we are losing is the true history

Today in LGBT History – June 22

Yesterday was Kelly’s and my nine-month anniversary of our wedding. We celebrate months because, well, we’re older and every day is a celebration. The sun was shining and we went kayaking in Sequim Bay with some friends. As I sat in the middle of the bay, listening to the water slap my kayak, feeling the

Today in LGBT History – June 21

I’m so disappointed in the Georgia 6 elections yesterday. So close and yet still so far to go. As Kathy Hogan wrote on Facebook this morning: “Yes, we’re bummed at the losses, and at all the crappy stuff that’s coming out of this administration. We get a victory here and there (like with the travel

Today in LGBT History – June 20

I find it beyond ironic that a Republican senator who is an NRA supporter and a homophobe was shot by man wielding a rifle, saved by a Black lesbian police officer, then underwent surgery with a Muslim physician. I hope he has enough courage to change his stance on his isms and his wrong-sided gun

Today in LGBT History – June 19

My old friend, Rev. Michael Piazza, wrote this on his blog this morning. It touched me deeply so I’m sharing it now: I wish I could say I was shocked by the Philando Castile verdict, but, unfortunately, it seemed entirely predictable. What does a black man have to do in this country to get justice against

Today in LGBT History – June 18

My dear friend Dr. Warren Blumenfeld wrote a beautiful piece entitled “Pride” Is More Than a Month.” Here are some excerpts from that essay: The histories of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, and intersex (LGBTQI) people are replete with incredible pain and immense pride, of overwhelming repression and victorious rejoicing, of stifling invisibility and

Today in LGBT History – June 17

Orcas floated by our house yesterday as they swam into Discovery Bay. They are such a rare sighting and we were thrilled! Our meditation reading this morning was about Pride, commemorating LGBT Pride Month. The author wrote that Pride isn’t about acclaims and glory but about the “declaration of personal self-acceptance.” For me, that means
