Impacts of Inclusion: A Discussion of Military Policies During and After WWII

  • Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County 100 Crescent Beach Road Glen Cove, NY, 11542 United States (map)

Whose stories do we hear when we learn about veterans? HMTC is teaming up with the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum for a program that explores policies that effected LGBTQ+ service members during and after WWII. Michael Stevens, a Museum Educator in the Intrepid' s Lifelong Learning Programs, will draw from research about who served, and who did not serve, on the Intrepid during its years in service from 1943-1974 to raise larger questions of how changes in military policies impacted the diversity of the ship's crew and reflected cultural change in the United States.
