LIVE

On May 18th host or attend a multi-generational #SAGEtable event “share food and experiences…create connections among generations.”

Are you going to host or attend a #SAGEtable meal? Who are your multi-generational Queer heroes? Who would be at your dream SAGE table event?

On May 18, @sageusa invites you to host or attend SAGE Table, a chance for LGBTQs of all ages to sit down, strengthen community, and forge new traditions. Follow @sageusa or the link in our bio and please host or attend a SAGE Table in your community. . In support of SAGE Table, @lgbt_history worked with the incredible @levijfoster and @mh0ffman to create “The Families We Make,” a series bringing together queer activist heroes of all ages. This post is part of that series; swipe right to see Levi’s portrait. . Edie Windsor and Thea Spyer met in 1963, began dating in 1965, and got engaged in 1967. They spent decades fighting for LGBTQ liberation. . In 2007, after thirty years of living with progressive MS, Thea was given a year to live. As they couldn’t legally marry in New York, the couple wed in Toronto. . After Thea’s death in 2009, Edie had to pay substantial federal taxes on her wife’s estate, whereas a heterosexual widow would not have paid any taxes; the different treatment arose from Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act, which applied “spouse” only to opposite-sex couples. Edie sued and fought to the Supreme Court, which declared Section 3 unconstitutional, paving the way for 2015’s marriage equality ruling. . @sageusa has a special place in Edie’s heart. She is a former board member and a winner of @sageusa’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and she took great comfort in the SAGE community after Thea’s death. . As @levijfoster’s portrait shows, it didn’t take long for Edie and @raymondbraun to hit it off. Raymond, a media personality, activist, and entrepreneur who has been named, among other things, one of the world’s most influential LGBTQs by OUT magazine, has an unrelenting passion for fairness and equality, especially when it comes to LGBTQ youth; he is engaged, engaging, hyper-intelligent, and compassionate. . Because of @sageusa, these two incredible activists shared space, made plans, and gave each other strength. We all can make these connections on May 18 by participating in SAGE Table. .

Partly inspired by the author’s own family history, China Room is a multigenerational novel of love and mistaken identity and twines together the stories of a woman and a man separated by more than half a century but united by blood. The cover depicts the wonderfully atmospheric image of Delhi based photographer Navin Kumar.
