LATINX HISTORY PROJECT

In 2000, the Latinx History Project, formerly known as the Latino GLBT History Project, was founded to collect, preserve and share Latinx LQBTQ history. LHP was founded by leaders who had been at the front lines of multiple civil rights movements across race, ethnicity and sexual orientation. At a time when Latinx LGBTQ+ communities were being left out of mainstream Latino and LGBTQ+ organizations, these leaders built their own space... The Latinx History Project documents and preserves our community's history, curates space to build community, and educates the public on the rich identities and societal contributions of the Latinx LGBTQ+ community to promote tolerance and acceptanc. Now more than ever, our mission and work is critical to our community's survival!
