I will no longer be posting on or checking my Twitter account. To keep up with @MakingGayHistry or @TWWTpodcast, check all the usual social media channels other than this one.

Hope to see you there! We’ve been working on this project for more than a year, scouring archives to find rare first-person testimony.

[Making Gay History @MakingGayHistry]

Join Eric this Sunday @SaintLouisHM where he'll share a sneak preview of our upcoming 10-episode series on the experiences of LGBTQ people during the rise of the Nazi regime and through the Holocaust.

@AuthorMGLee This is all you! A real triumph! Congratulations!

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

Wish I could be there! But you can if you're in the Twin Cities. It's a terrific book!

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

Two of my books are on the list of books being "audited" for possible exclusion from the Leighton Area High School Library, including Is It A Choice? and What If Someone I Know Is Gay? Here's the full list: https://t.co/yXQMVxMO5R

@jdlovitz If only I could remember the name of the florist shop I worked at in Kew Gardens, Queens, when I was 15 (50 years ago) I’d add it to my CV so I could never be accused of hiding an early step in my long career as a journalist!

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

@MSignorile Wishing you a quick recovery. Thanks for putting yourself at risk while reporting from the DNC. Greatly appreciated your take on the whole thing.

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

@ankahajkova Happy Anniversary! Mazel tov!

Phil Donahue RIP. One of the greats. In 1987, shortly after I told my grandmother I was gay (she was 84), she took me on a walk and explained that she watched the "Phil Donahue Show" so she knew that I couldn't change. It gave her comfort to know that Donahue was supportive.

Loved chatting with Robert O’Shaughnessy for his "You May Find Yourself" podcast (YMFY is a podcast about work, career, and finding a path—mine was very winding and occasionally tortured!). Hope you enjoy what you hear! 👇

[Rob O’Shaughnessy @rmoshaughnessy]

New You May Find Yourself podcast alert via @thisisoesounds. Today I speak with @EricBMarcus of @MakingGayHistry. The episode is on the website, on Apple podcasts, and on all the podcatchers including @Spotify here: https://t.co/mF7mSnZWrh

@NewYorker @jaycaspiankang No! The Republic is safe if she wins.

@PaulRudnickNY Such a way with words! A perfect description/explanation.

Our LGBTQ+ ancestors worked too hard to get us our freedom to turn back. We won't go back! https://t.co/DUXmFpC1DU

Making History in so many ways!

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

NEW: We just launched the first video of our campaign.

“We choose freedom.”

@LostBallot @evanwolfson @MakingGayHistry @jor_gonsalves I wish we had the resources and time!

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

If not for @evanwolfson we wouldn't be marking today's NY marriage equality anniversary. Evan is a hero of the LGBTQ+ movement with a great story to tell. That's why @MakingGayHistry is sharing an episode of @jor_gonsalves' podcast featuring Evan. Listen! https://t.co/LNHlb1RtK2

@Matthew_Hodson Looking great in the prime of life!

"I was hooked and it's so beautifully produced. It's extraordinary. I've not heard anything like it before."

@EricBMarcus, host of @MakingGayHistry, on Slow Burn: Gays Against Briggs on our bonus episode from @TribecaAudio.

Binge the whole season now! https://t.co/tyeCfopCtq

[Eric Marcus @EricBMarcus]

Such a fun conversation with the incredibly talented and creative @c_cauterucci who produced one of the best LGBTQ history podcast series I've ever heard. Listen to ep. 1 and you'll be hooked. But don't forget the "live on stage" final episode!

[Making Gay History @MakingGayHistry]

“Going into the archives and hearing tape — as in your podcast — it's so evocative ... these voices bring to life that history in a way that reading about it can't." —Eric

Hear Eric on stage w/ @slate's @c_cauterucci for #SlowBurn Live last month.
