Bonnie Brennen was affiliated with SUNY at the time of publication. Sue A. La(ky and Bonnie Brennen For Better or For Worse: Coming Out in the Funny Pages Among the most significant occasions in the lives of gay men and lesbians is the one in which they realize that their sexual orientation situates them as "other." One aspect of this process, known as coming out, is the self-acknowledgement ofbeing gay or lesbian, while another aspect consists of revealing this identity to family members and friends. During her 1980s fieldwork with lesbians and gay men in San Francisco, anthropologist Kath Weston observed that "no other topic generated an emotional response comparable to coming out to blood (or adoptive) relatives" (1991, 43). She wrote: When discussion turned to the subject of straight family, it was not unusual for interviews to be interrupted by tears, rage, or a lengthy silence. "Are you out to your parents?" and "Are you out to your family?" were questions that almost inevitably arose in the process of getting to know another lesbian or gay person. ( 43) In Spring of 1993, such a "coming out" process was played out in North American newspapers through Canadian artist Lynn Johnston's syndicated comic strip, For Better or For Worse. -

Tuscaloosa Bicentennial Celebration
OLLI Joins in the Alabama and Tuscaloosa Bicentennial Celebration During 2019, OLLI will be offering classes, field trips, and special programs that will explore the evolution of our state, as well as, the city of Tuscaloosa. Join us, as we look at our past and celebrate the opportunities we have for the future. 1819 was an important year in the history of Tuscaloosa and Alabama. • On December 13, 1819, the town of Tuscaloosa was incorporated. • The following day, Alabama became the 22nd state in the United States. From the War of 1812 and the Creek Indian War, we have seen struggles and opportunities to become the place we now call “home”. Alabama offers so much diversity in our landscapes, from the mountains to the beaches that make up our state. The people who settled this state have also enriched it through cultural diversity, with the State having been under more than seven different flags. From the Civil War and Reconstruction years, we moved into the forefront of the Civil Rights Movement of our country. We have seen a transformation from a largely agrarian economy to one that represents technology and other thriving interests. Check out the many OLLI offerings on page 5 and for the complete listing of bicentennial events offered visit alabama200.org and tuscaloosa200.com.
