Experiences of LGBTQ People of Color - A Display in Honor of National Coming Out Day

The University Library is partnering with PSU’s Queer Resource Center to present a display of books and films in honor of National Coming Out Day (October 11). The materials will be on display October 8-14, 2012, in the “New Books” area just to the right of the entrance to Millar Library.

About the Display

Too often the voices of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer People of Color are left out of coming out narratives. The Queer Resource Center selected these materials to illuminate the wide spectrum of ways in which racial and cultural identities are experienced in a white, heteronormative, cisgender society. While these books and films cannot define the entirety of the experiences of LGBTQ People of Color, they do provide a beginning for all people to learn more and bring front and center the stories of LGBTQ People of Color.
