In this episode, Pride Northwest Executive Director Debra Porta speaks with Cayla McGrail and Eden Dabbs from the LGBTQ+ Historic Sites Project, which is housed within the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability’s Historic Resources Program. The LGBTQ+ Historic Sites Project is a multi-year effort that works to identify, document, and preserve historic places and resources associated with lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer+ histories. Debra, Cayla, and Eden discuss the origins of the project, its timeline and goals, why it's important to document and preserve LGBTQ+ histories, and how you as a community member can get involved.
