THE GAY MEN WERE FIRED FROM THE PEACE CORPS AFTER THEY TTED POSIVE FOR HIV
Many may know as a month of horror movi, ndy, and spooky ratns, but also happens to be Lbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgenr History month. Yet, even if I were to fd trac of homosexualy or transgenr experienc, feels uhil to disclose personal rmatn whout the donor’s permissn.

I would also like to emphasize the credible work of Jim Kelly and the Lbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgenr Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Associatn, while touchg on the ton of LGBT+ Peace Corps history.
In many untri around the world, intifyg openly (or “g out of the closet”) as gay, lbian, bisexual, or transgenr is illegal. When Kennedy created the Peace Corps 1961, the anizatn’s stance on homosexualy rrpond wh that of the Uned Stat feral ernment. Government agenci rooted out potential secury breach, focg largely on anyone spected of beg a homosexual.
