Evenings Out
I would like to be remembered as a good person
Elton John talks about his place in LGBT history
In 1994, educators across the country began working to counteract the lack of information about LGBT people in textbooks. The efforts of Missouri high school teacher Rodney Wilson led to the creation of LGBT History Month in October.
This issue marks the beginning of the third year the Gay Peoples Chronicle, along with other newspapers across the nation, honor LGBT History Month with a series of articles by and about people, organizations and events that shaped the world and continue to strive for greater equality.
For the project, Philadelphia Gay News publisher Mark Segal spoke with Elton John about his work and the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
