Last June, archivists at GLBT Historical Society started looking through their (extensive) holdings for material relating to the Bay Area’s queer Jewish community.
My story in J. The Jewish News of Northern California on what they found:

The GLBT Historical Society collects, preserves, exhibits and makes accessible LGBTQ history, culture and arts. Recently, the Society met with #ReadyOrNotCA to establish #emergencyresponse procedures and documentation for their archive and museum locations. CA State Library #PrideMonth
A new digital collection from GLBT Historical Society makes publicly available archival materials that trace the history of LGBTQ Jewish life in the Bay Area and beyond.

Allan Berube's slides for his lecture 'On the Gay Waterfront' tell the story of the waterfront as site of gay desire. 1970s lovers kiss on a pier; 1950s sailors strike a pose; a midcentury ad captures a sense of freedom and possibility. #ArchivesHashtagParty #ArchivesUnderTheSea
