Details
This is a community-wide book discussion around the new book "We Will Always Be Here: A Guide to Exploring and Understanding the History of LGBTQ+ Activism in Wisconsin." Authors Jenny Kalvaitis and Kristen Whitson will join the virtual discussion.
This short book tells the many stories of important people, events, and organizations in our state's LGBTQ+ history. Though "We Will Always Be Here" is written with a young adult audience in mind, it can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Free books will be available starting Wednesday, July 7 and can be picked up near the Circulation Desk at the Main branch of the public library.
Keep an eye out for future LGBTQ+ Wisconsin history programming through the spring of 2022. LGBTQ+ history doesn't end with Pride Month so be sure to join us in actively learning about and celebrating LGBTQ+ identities this year.
This program is brought to you in partnership with the Wisconsin State Historical Society, The Center: 7 Rivers LGBTQ Connection, and the UWL Pride Center.
