Queer history Special Event – Hosted by Uptime
Celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community through the ages
Queer History: Uncovering the Rainbow of Our Past
February 1 - March 1, 2024
Embark on a captivating journey through the vibrant and often overlooked tapestry of queer history with this special event in Uptime. For one month, explore the remarkable lives, movements, and triumphs of LGBTQ+ individuals and communities that have shaped our world, yet whose stories have long been suppressed or minimized.
Through a series of engaging multimedia features, delve into the seminal moments, celebrated icons, and little-known pioneers that have proudly flown the rainbow flag. Learn about the courageous activists who fought for equality, the trailblazing artists who shattered boundaries, and the everyday heroes who refused to be invisible. Immerse yourself in the rich diversity of queer experiences, from the Stonewall riots to the AIDS crisis, from the ballroom culture of the 1980s to the ongoing struggles for transgender rights.
This is your chance to uncover the hidden gems of LGBTQ+ history, to be inspired by stories of resilience and triumph, and to better understand the significance of queer identity, past and present. Join us in celebrating the color, the passion, and the profound impact of this community - and discover how their legacies continue to shape our world today.
The special event starts February 1, 2024 — ends March 1, 2024.
