Coming out later in life
Published 3 years, 11 months ago
Description
Former WBEZ host Tony Sarabia produced an audio documentary titled
“Unlocking The Closet'' back in 2000. Tony, who came out later in life, wanted to
share the stories of others who’d also finally felt ready to take this step. The
documentary recounts the coming out stories of queer people who grew up in the 1950s
and early ‘60s. While a lot has changed, many queer Americans still don’t have a
safe space to come out. Curious City pulls this documentary out of the archives to
recognize October 11 – National Coming Out Day.
