Lost Bayard Rustin interview

The Mak­ing Gay His­to­ry pod­cast fea­tur­ing Quak­er Civ­il Rights Bayard Rustin is avail­able now:

The chal­lenge we faced in telling Rustin’s sto­ry in a Mak­ing Gay His­to­ry episode was the appar­ent absence of any record­ings where he talked about his expe­ri­ences as a gay man.  But thanks to the dogged research­ing efforts of Sara Burn­ing­ham and the gen­eros­i­ty of Rustin’s sur­viv­ing part­ner, Wal­ter Nae­gle, who record­ed and saved the rare inter­views Rustin gave on the sub­ject of his sex­u­al­i­ty, we’re able to bring this aspect of Rustin’s expe­ri­ence to life through his own voice.
