A lovely history lesson on 23 queer people, many of whom I had no idea about or whom I had no idea were queer. I love the emphasis on remembering these people the way they wanted to be remembered in their true identities as opposed to the heteronormative ones that society pushed on them in their times. Great read and inspiring resource for queer people who want to learn about some of the leaders and influential people that paved the way for lgbtq rights today.
