Historian, writer, and political commentator Neil Young—author of “Coming Out Republican: A History of the Gay Right” joins Out Leadership’s Todd Sears to unpack the legacy of LGBTQ+ conservatives in America.
Young reflects on how gay Republicans once played a vital role in the fight for equality—yes, Log Cabin Republicans were instrumental in advancing same-sex rights—and how that legacy has been abandoned under the current political climate. What does it mean to be LGBTQ+ and conservative today? This is a conversation rooted in history and relevant now.
