Description

Richmond is an old place, at least in American terms. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people have always been a part of its history. This exhibit, published originally on OutHistory in 2013, is dedicated to all those who challenged the norms of society, who lived free and honest lives, and who moved us forward--maybe just a little, but always forward.
