Action and Ambition - Un podcast de Andrew Medal

Welcome to another episode of The Action and Ambition podcast! Joining us today is Dr. Vanda, the author of the Juliana series, which tells the story of LGBT's gradual rise from invisibility and terror into a place of "acceptance." These are books about people surviving and rising through difficult and dark days. However, they are not gloomy books. The characters are filled with spirit and lots of humor. Book 1 begins in 1941 and ends when the war is almost over in 1944. Book 2 runs from 1945-1955. Book 3 takes place in Paris in 1955-56 and Book IV covers January - August 1956. The same characters mature and change throughout each book. Dr. Vanda’s life’s mission is to honor LGBT history: to let people, gay and straight, know that the LGBT community shares a rich cultural history that is as important and as valid as any other minority group’s history.
