I used to work at a gay bookstore when I lived in Washington DC. THis is about that.

Lambda Rising was the first gay bookstore I went to. I was there in October 1988. And that is where I first heard of ACT UP. Which I joined in 1989, when we got a local chapter.

But sometimes, I feel like we’re losing things out of order. Or get really scared that my culture that makes me me is disappearing.

how much of your history would you be willing to bleed out just to get treated like you’re normal?

I started tearing up at my desk over this bit.

When I went to school in DC I went to Lambda Rising all the time!!

I fondly remember Lambda Rising as well from when I lived in/near DC.
