Synopsis:
Recorded and edited by Schaeffer Nelson, "OUTSpoken KC: Love and Marriage..." is an anthology of oral histories from Kansas City's LGBT communities. These wildly diverse stories range from historical to the everyday. A gay immigrant who sought asylum in Brookside. A Northland lesbian couple that survived a frightening custody battle. A Parkville trans woman's stunningly awkward first date. An interracial lesbian couple that navigated the racial politics of Kansas City's separatist Womantown in the 80's. OUTSpoken KC was originally presented by the Gay and Lesbian Archives of Mid-America (GLAMA, '13; encore, '14).
