This week's episode is a special blend of LGBTQ+ pride and historical pride! First, Kelley tells the story of Opal Lee who, despite having experienced racial trauma on Juneteenth, advocated for it to become a federal holiday and walked thousands of miles to make it happen! Then, Emily shares the story of Edythe D. Eyde, better known as Lisa Ben, who became a founder of LGBTQ+ journalism when she was looking for lesbian friends and trying to build a community. Lace up your walking shoes and choose your pseudonym carefully, because we're wining about herstory!
