What it really means to have a bi community.

Welcome to our LGBT podcast! In today's episode I talk with Neil Aasve and William Burleson!

Fundraiser and philanthropist Neil Aasve (he/him) shares the LGBT book that saved his life: Bi America: Myths Truths and Struggles of an Invisible Community by William Burleson. Neil recalls the first time he read Bi America, "I remember my heart pounding. I just remember saying the words out loud: I’m bisexual!"

William joins us to talk about how he saw writing Bi America as an opportunity to preserve history.
