Paulette Goodman’s experience of growing up as a Jewish child in Paris during the Nazi occupation gave her a unique perspective as the parent of a gay child who faced discrimination in the country where Paulette’s family sought refuge. Paulette knew what it meant to be different, to be demonized, and to have your life threatened because of who you are. And she brought all that experience to bear in her work with PFLAG (formerly known as Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays).
During Paulette’s years heading PFLAG’s Washington, DC, chapter and subsequent tenure as president of @pflagnational, from 1988 to 1992, she used her powers of persuasion, the media, and her standing as a gray-haired mom to carry the ball forward in the fight for LGBTQ equal rights.

Happy birthday to Frida Kahlo The legendary Mexican artist would have been 111 today. Her work has inspired generations of artists. Frida occasionally wore men’s clothing and was proudly bisexual — despite the world being hostile to LGBTQ people in the early 20th century. 📸: #NickolasMuray The first portrait was taken by Frida’s father, Guillermo Kahlo, in 1926.
