Together, the two are currently running Queer History 101, a monthly book club that’s taking a more expansive approach to history than simply reciting dates or names, at a time when their mission couldn’t be more important. “We need those folks to teach us—and the only way we can do it now is to read their stories.”Queer History 101 is a fully virtual, monthly book club. Queer History 101 is a revival of sorts, the reincarnation of a book club that began with an online indie store started by Eric Cervini and Adam Powell, built with the goal to pay and promote queer authors. The book club has been revamped to fit the new hosts’ vision for queer history. “I don't care if you come to queer history through a comic book or through TV or any of the books in our book club,” Ryan says.
