SUMMARY:Cemetery Speaker Series: The Pink Triangle and the Fight for LGBTQ+ Rights in the U.S.
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, Americans have fought for freedom. And in the mid 20th century\, Gay Americans fought for and advanced the LGBTQ+ liberation movement. Seeking equal rights and protections from discrimination\, gay rights advocacy took on many forms of resistance\, including a symbol seen on graves at Congressional Cemetery\, the Pink Triangle. \nTo explore LGBTQ+ history and gay legacy in the nation’s capital\, we hope that you will join us for a very special WorldPride edition of the Cemetery Speaker Series with LGBTQ+ historian Dr. Jake Desai-Newsome. \nHe will explore the inspiring history of how generations of LGBTQ+ activists transformed the pink triangle from a Nazi concentration camp badge into a powerful call to action for LGBTQ+ pride\, justice\, and community. Drawing from unexplored archival sources and exclusive interviews\, Dr. Desai-Newsome will showcase the ways activists in the US and beyond used the pink triangle – and the history it represented – to fight against injustice in the present. Washington DC played a unique role in bringing together networks of activists and scholars in the LGBTQ+ rights movement. You’ll hear the stories and see the final resting place of some of the most influential advocates for LGBTQ+ equality in American history \n \nAfter the presentation\, Interim Executive Director A.J. Orlikoff will lead a thematic evening LGBTQ+ walking tour of the historic grounds. All proceeds go to benefit our non-profit mission of historical preservation and education. Space is limited so be sure to reserve your spot today! Keynote remarks will take place inside the Chapel and the walking tour will take place on the grounds. The tour is approximately 45 minutes in length. Please come prepared with comfortable clothing and shoes\, as the tours often stray from the main paths.  We will be serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages from our pop-up bar. \nThe event is rain or shine. Smoking is prohibited and dogs are not allowed to attend the event unless they are a service animal. All proceeds from the event directly benefit our non-profit mission. \nYou may register below. \n\n\n \n
