ABOUT
The QDHP is an independent community digital history project documenting pre-2010 LGBTQ digital spaces online. Our current projects include:
- A catalog of early LGBTQ online communities
- An archive of transgender-related Usenet newsgroups
- Interactive maps of TGNet, one of the first international transgender-specific BBS networks
- Primary documents from early communities, covering the mid-1980s to the late 2000s
The QDHP is maintained by Avery Dame-Griff, a Lecturer in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Gonzaga University and author of The Two Revolutions: A History of the Transgender Internet (2023). If you're using the project, please get in contact! We're always interested in hearing how folks are using the QDHP (and how it could improve).
