HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- From first crush to first love, from the closet to coming out and from loss to connection. For the last 25 years, retired schoolteacher Arden Eversmeyer travelled from Houston across the US to record hundreds of oral 'herstories' from a rapidly disappearing population.

Beautifully done! So much wisdom, experience, strength and grace in these life stories and these LOAFers!
Crying my eyes out after watching this, what a beautiful film! Everyone should know about this! As a 21 year old lesbian I can't begin to say how grateful I am for all the work these women did for our community, and it's so wonderful to see their lives and their love.
Fantastic! I'm an older lesbian, it's great to see my peers represented in our community, & our herstories documented.
I love this! All of the stories collected for the project are incredibly interesting. I'm so glad things have improved over the years, and I hope things continue to improve.
Lovely stories, thank you for bringing it up ❤
Great overall landscape of our lesbian lives from the early beginnings. Thank you for capturing this essential lesbian herstory.
What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing it. :)
Beautiful stories, thank you for sharing.
This is so cool & beautiful. I want to hear every minute of everyone’s story!!! Every Thanksgiving I announce to my entire extended family if any one is LGBTQ I’m ur Allie. No takers yet😊
This is beautiful, thank you
Amazing. Young LGBT people in the West have a rich inheritance because of people like Arden, the volunteers and interviewees. The coalitions we have today in the community are not new, they are a continuation.
This is so lovely ❤❤ it makes me so happy
Love is love. This is essential!
Haha Edith is such as a character - Down to earth, funny and thoughtful.
I imagine it’d be a hard listen for a homophobe because the stories of being young, discovering yourself and falling in love could just as easily be a story from straight guy with the change of a couple pronouns.
This project is amazing.
Thank you! ❤
Thank you for sharing this story! Absolutely amazing. ❤️

Do they have biological children at one time?
I wonder how Bridget Ziegler would fit in this group?
For a group of people who are so strong, amazing, courageous, brave and strong its interesting how often they need to be reminded how strong, amazing, courageous, brave and strong they are.
Seriously?
Actually, many of us do it to people we love and care about very often indeed.
@@CherDele You are doing it on a personal level.
What other group is reminded this often how great they are?
Is it really? Would you say that about Marcus Garvey? It isn't surprising at all really when you put it in it's historical context.. only a person who has given the matter no thought at all could possibly say that..
@@JobVanDamthe black community historically (it was part of the civil right's movement)
@@mariannehavisham8323 The black community gets 1 month of being reminded how great they are.
The LGBT get 4 months of being reminded how great they are. 4 months.
4 months and meanwhile what have they actually done?
Funny this has so few views and likes, yet it won an award. Pushing that narrative.
😳 What The Actual F!!! 😳
😲 What Have I Just Watched!!! 😲
Ssomething beautiful
Open your heart ❤ perhaps you will love yourself eventually

Do you know, Indian Central Force unable to provide peaceful Parliamentary Election in West Bengal, India. It is said that India has a strong and leathal Central Force. But, unfortunately, some Indian Central Force personnel fled away from the voting ground during pelting and other activities by the local culprits. If they can not control local bengali culprits how they can control the nation India? It seems that Indian Central Force is not lethal enough as projected. You are requested to watch videos of TV9 Bangla, Republic Bangla, ABP Ananda etc on 25th May, 2024.
