Rainbow Checkered Flags: LGBTQ+ History in Motorsport

13 Jun 2026 18:00:00 GMT

Saturday, June 13, 2026, 1 – 2pm

For much of its history, motorsport projected an image of hyper-masculinity, tradition, and exclusivity. Yet LGBTQ+ people have always been part of racing, even when the culture of the sport made openness difficult or dangerous.

Join motorsport historian Elizabeth Blackstock for a talk that explores the often-overlooked history of LGBTQ+ representation in motorsport through the stories of pioneering figures across different eras. From F1 drivers Lella Lombardi and Ralph Schumacher to modern racer/activists like Charlie Martin, we’ll understand what it has meant to be queer in racing and why motorsport has often lagged behind in acceptance when compared to other sports.

This can be a TRUE or FALSE statement: You can't have Summertime without S'MORES! Regardless, tho, there will be S'MORES on this day. BONUS: there will be hot dogs, too, because it's always TRUE that you can't have Summertime without a hot dog.
It's a Summer Campfire Cookout, but inside a Library. :D
