Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 18/11/2025Milwaukee—and Wisconsin overall—had a complex but thoughtful AIDS response. I’m finding powerful collaborations alongside real tension over strategy, geography, and philosophy. Corporate philanthropy played a big role too, reminding me how vital it is to listen closely to those around us. 000
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 22/07/2025@reaching4divine.bsky.social and I were discussing the curse of knowledge and it got me thinking about a turn of phrase that kept rolling around in my brain as I was pondering the title of my next exhibit, which is about #AIDS in #Milwaukee. 221
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 19/05/2025I just found the title for my next exhibit ⚡🤩 I am inspired by the oral history interview conducted by Linda Wesp for the UWM Archives with clinical psychologist Jeff Kelly. I need to take a walk haha 010
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Just in from the printer's 🖼️🤩 Jazzed to debut my latest exhibit at PrideFest Milwaukee in just 3 weeks. Oh, and I've just about finalized my choices for the VIP history tour and wine tasting. Yes, science, queer history, and wine 🥂 It's the gayest, Wisconsin-ist program I could think of. 020
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Trying real hard to get my Japanese pronunciation down for the audio recording of "Through Science to Justice" 000
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Feeling a lot of affinity with librarians at the Wisconsin Association of Public Librarians conference in Oshkosh, WI. I got to tour their library (wow, huge!) and heard lots of lovely things about both @oshkoshpride.bsky.social and @uwoshkosh.bsky.social -- I'll have to check ya'll out soon! 010
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 30/04/2025I'm in the throes of research, chasing leads and gathering new facts and perspectives. These just came in the mail... 2 HUGE, heavy books (in weight as well as subject matter) and a documentary DVD produced by @pbs.org to help me on my journey to understanding Milwaukee's response to AIDS. 000
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 07/03/2025From archival docs to personal stories, piecing together a vital narrative. Diving into UW-Milwaukee archives & 23hrs of oral histories re: Milwaukee's unique AIDS response. Posting my exploration of documentary & pop culture AIDS depictions on Tumblr. #LGBThistory #UWMLibraries #AIDS #OralHistory 000
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 08/02/2025Loving the energy at the USA Prides conference. So many kindred spirits who value and promote #LGBTQhistory for its ability to inspire and empower action. I'm also really happy that the wine pairings idea was a hit 😆 020
Expanding Horizons @exphorizonslgbt.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Feeling represented by USPS 💓 Seeing Keith Haring's design on something as iconically American as a postage stamp makes me feel the love that could've otherwise been drowned out these days. I'm going to be proudly quoting exhibit shipping through the post office. 110
