CIRCA: LEGACY OF LOVE: LGBTQ+ ELDERS TALK SEX AND RELATIONSHIPS

For "Legacy of Love: LGBTQ+ Elders Talk Sex and Relationships," a panel of queer and trans elders looks back on their years of radical rabble-rousing and sexual revolution-making and ask: What do love and sex mean for the LGBTQ+ community as they become elders? What changes from these elders’ younger years, and what stays the same? In a society that desexualizes our elders, what does that mean for individuals who fought so hard to gain acceptance for their sexual identities?

Panelists including activist, social worker, and therapist Rosalyne Blumenstein, Homan Los Angeles co-founder and mental health counselor Dr. Payam Ghassemlou, and multidisciplinary performing artist Paul Outlaw engage with questions of assimilation, the continuing ripples of the HIV epidemic, chosen family, and celebration of our bodies.
