never again is now: learning from LGBTQ+ history to fight for our future

An exploration of Holocaust history to establish context for understanding challenges today. We'll identify the top 10 key lessons for understanding the Nazi persecution of LGBTQ+ people and its relevance for today. Attendees will also be equipped with action items that will help them confront queerphobia and transphobia in their own communities.

Dr. Jake Newsome is an award-winning scholar of German and American LGBTQ+ history and the Founder and President of the Pink Triangle Legacies Project, which honors the Nazis’ LGBTQ+ victims and combats homophobia and transphobia through education and advocacy. He is the author of Pink Triangle Legacies: Coming Out in the Shadow of the Holocaust, tracing the pink triangle’s transformation into a global symbol of pride.

Dr. Bob Minor of The Fairness Project spoke on how religious issues often interfere with advocacy for equality and inclusion, and arguments from the Bible, tradition, and religious authorities are often cited to justify discrimination and abuse. Arguing about religion is often futile and frustrating. We put religious arguments into perspective and explore practical strategies to defuse and redirect such arguments into issues that lie beneath religious argument where the healing begins.
