We'll see how it works in fiction, film and formal festivities later in the program? but we first set the tone with JUDY GRAHN's classic poem "A HISTORY OF LESBIANISM" (from the herstoric Olivia Records "Lesbian Concentrate" LP). - Our literary commentator JANET MASON has her own bookshelf of fictional prose ? and they're anything but "prosaic" (Ann Bannon's "ODD GIRL OUT," the re-released pulp classic first published in 1957, and "UNDER THIS BEAUTIFUL DOME", a memoir of lesbian life by Terry Mutchler published in 2014).

Comedian JOHN OLIVER of HBO's "Last Week Tonight" provided a straightforward -- and on target -- explanation (with intro music from the show?s opening theme). [www.hbo.com/last-week-tonight-with-john-oliver] - In 1993 the newly inaugurated ESPY AWARDS named the Arthur Ashe Courage Award for the world's first black No. 1 tennis player and his bravery in confronting AIDS, the taboo issue of the day.
