    About this Episode

    What’s up peoples, I’m your host Lo and you’re back At The Bistro, a safe space where we focus on stories of, and from, forgotten communities and their connections to each other. Basically, we’re a history podcast y’all hahahahaha.

    This week’s topic is Gender & Sexuality as we start our Queer Miami/South Florida series. 

    Today we’re going to share a couple of stories that shows the commonality between two different communities: Fred Symonette & the La Paloma Queer Bar Raids, in Miami, of the 1930’s - 50’s. 

    ***SIDENOTE/DISCLAIMER: The Bistro is a sex positive space. There will be times in which I refer to some acts and actions as “devious.” This is only in response to how patriarchy views sex and the contradictory manner in which they publicly shame certain sex acts while they privately indulge in those same acts***
