All,
Please forward this along, or feel free to get in contact off-list if you
have suggestions!
I'm looking to conduct informal informational interviews with queer and/or
transgender-identified folks who, during the mid 1980s into the 1990s, were
active on any of these forums:
- Compuserve's (aka CIS) GenderLine forum (also known as HSX-200)
- Prodigy (pre or post the closure of the "Frank Discussions" forum)
- GEnie (such as members of the GEnie Girls).
I'm hoping to learn more about the structure of these groups/spaces, their
culture, and just how folks used them. If anyone is either interested in or
might know someone who would be interested in participating in a short (one
hour) interview, please let me know at avery.dame AT gmail.com.
Thanks in advance,
Avery Dame-Griff
