   Elderly Gay People Speak of the Past

Here’s a wonderful video from The LA Gay Center. Gay seniors talk about being gay, their families, relationships, discrimination, struggles, love, life, and the past. The wisdom, alacrity, and honesty here is striking. Our world is full of elderly individuals, whose insight and experience is often ignored. Among the already forgotten and disregarded senior population, elderly gay people often face particularly troubling situations. This video is human, real, and show the stories these people have to tell us.
