Outwords Archive Inc

The Outwords Archive captures preserves and shares the stories of lgbtq+ elders to build community and catalyze social change. To date Outwords has collected more than 400 queer elder interviews in 47 States. We record the stories of both recognized national leaders and unsung heroes. We delve into a deep variety of ethnic cultural economic educational and geographic communities to ensure a rich varied and inclusive portrait of the people who led the lgbtq+ civil rights movement from the beginning. We distribute these stories through the book of pride published by harper collins in may 2019 through a completely free digital storytelling site theoutwordsarchive.org and through a wide variety of online and in-person programs.
