This spring, we unveiled a new item in the Special Collections that preserves and celebrates the LGBTQ+ history in our local Bloomington community: the Bullwinkle’s mural.
Today we are highlighting an archival collection at the Kinsey Institute and its donor: Dr. Joanne E. Passet, Professor Emerita of History at Indiana University East. Dr. Passet has spent her career recovering the lost history of lesbian artists, academics, and activists, and celebrating their contributions to American culture and society.
