FROM REDACTION TO ACCESS: Navigating Challenges to Unlock Houston's LGBTQ Media History

Abstract

The Gulf Coast LGBT Radio and Television Digitization Project launched in 2020 to digitize, preserve, describe, and make accessible thousands of hours of Houston’s LGBTQ broadcast history. The authors explain the significance of the programs selected for inclusion in the project and describe the steps taken to balance the goal of equitable access to unique materials created by and for a marginalized community, while maintaining adherence to copyright restrictions.
