OutHistory.org is a public history website about lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and heterosexual history, with a non-exclusive focus on the United States and Canada. Historians contributing to the site are especially interested in documenting under-represented histories and fostering historical research that contributes to positive social change. The site features over 200 digital exhibitions on various topics of LGBTQ+ history, built from primary sources and contextualized by brief texts written by guest scholars who have curated each exhibition. A “bookshelf” features books written by historians on LGBTQ+ topics. OutHistory is increasingly being used by teachers to introduce students to primary sources and historical analysis relating to the LGBTQ+ past. The content of OutHistory.org is provided primarily by volunteers. OutHistory receives non-profit status as a project of the Fund for the City of New York. The organization is funded by donations from users. To donate, see https://outhistory.org/donate. More information...
