LGBTQ Columbia History Initiative

Historic Columbia, in a partnership with South Caroliniana Library and UofSC’s Department of Oral History, created the LGBTQ Columbia History Initiative.  

This interactive project documents the often unseen and untold stories of the LGBTQ+ collective through the creation and dissemination of oral histories, historic site interpretation, and archival collections, including:

  • A website with more than 35 oral histories from Columbia’s LGBTQIA+ community, featuring the stories of participants covering all ages, races, sexual orientations and gender identities. 
  • The We’re Here! StoryMap, which identifies more than 250 events, organizations and businesses spread across more than 100 physical locations  
  • The fully processed South Carolina Queer , Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Collection at South Caroliniana Library, UofSC 

Historic Columbia is committed to telling the stories of all Columbians and linking contemporary audiences with Columbia and Richland County’s diverse and complex past. In 2019, the organization partnered with the Queer Cola Oral History & Digital Archive Pr
