October is LGBTQ History Month! Your Brown University Library is highlighting\u00a0Queer Pasts<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0as its Electronic Resource of the Month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queer Pasts is a new digital queer history project consisting of primary source document collections and curatorial essays. Queer Pasts seeks to broaden the field of queer history by prioritizing projects that focus on the experiences and perspectives of under-represented historical groups, including people of color, trans people, and people with disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each document exhibit includes 20-40 primary source documents; whenever possible, they are available in both transcribed (searchable) and original form. Every exhibit also includes a critical introductory essay that helps explain the significance of the primary sources in historical terms and in relationship to previous scholarship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queer Pasts collections include Reclamation Projects: An Archive of Queer Latinidad, 1850-1921 and “A Revealment Most Sensational”: Eleven Stories of Trans Lives in the United States, 1878-1914, plus so much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explore this resource to create new and compelling research questions about queer and trans life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
