This presentation examines what it was like to be queer in 1950s and 1960s America, an America where anyone who did not conform to social norms and expectations was ostracized. The guest speaker, Bob Skiba, is the Curator of Collections for the John J. Wilcox Jr. LGBT Archives at the William Way Community Center in Philadelphia.
