Welcome to The Gayest Generation, where we hear LGBTQ older adults speak for themselves. Every episode, we sit down with a different member of the LGBTQ community who laid the foundation for the freedoms we have today. Their stories make noise where there is silence and that silence has lived for far too long.
In this episode, we speak with Kathy Kozachenko, the first openly LGBTQ+ person to be elected to public office in American history. We talk about her time on the Ann Arbor City Council, the importance of voting, and hear her advice for queer politicians today.
AADL is excited to announce that you can listen to this episode, or any episode of The Gayest Generation, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube!
