On this day in queer history: July 5, 1961 Queer Milwaukeeans fought back at the Black Nite Bar after being attacked by servicemen. Led by Black lesbian Josie Carter, this early act of resistance predates Stonewall by 8 years. Remember the Black Nite Brawl. #QueerHistory #Milwaukee #JosieCarter

On this day in queer history: Oct 14, 1977 During a live TV appearance in Iowa, anti-gay activist Anita Bryant was hit with a pie in protest of her “Save Our Children” campaign. A sweet moment of queer resistance. #QueerHistory #LGBTQHistory #QueerResistance #AnitaBryant

So June is Pride month, if you weren’t already aware of that. We’re going to be doing things all month for #AltPride but as a teaser, let’s talk about how we got the first LGBTQ organization in the US. And that means we learn about Henry Gerber. #Pride #LGBTQIA #Queerhistory #AltGov #AltFam

Queer Figure — Happy Birthday to Billie Joe Armstrong (b. 1972)! 🏳️‍🌈 The Green Day frontman has openly identified as bisexual for years and helped bring queer visibility to punk & rock culture. Love you, queers & weirdos. Don’t forget your fiber. #QueerHistory #LGBTQStories

On this day in queer history: Aug 5, 1961 Milwaukee’s LGBTQ+ community, led by Josie Carter, fought back against homophobic attackers at Black Nite bar. One of the earliest queer uprisings in U.S. history—years before Stonewall. ✊🏳️‍🌈 #QueerHistory #OnThisDay #BlackNiteRiot #JosieCarter #Milwaukee

Chubby-shark ( @chubby-shark.bsky.social ) is bringing early-Middle Age Arabic and Islamic representation to this zine, depicting how, with the traditions of poetry and song, it was common for a man to praise another man’s beauty. #QueerMuslim #QueerIslam #LGBTQ #LGBTQArt #QueerHistory

I loved writing this in 2019, because obviously the answer is: yes, yes it does! www.theguardian.com/books…. #skystorians #queerhistory

Does it matter if Mary Shelley was bisexual?

Her letters show that the author turned to women after her husband’s death. It’s an important insight into intimate history – and an inspiring example
