LGBTQ+ History in the United States  
   
      .                               
 

 
  While much of the history of LGBTQ+ people before the 20th century has gone undocumented or been lost, the early 20th century was home to many events and figures which would have lasting effects on the LGBTQ+ community. Like in many eras this period represented many moments of progress as well as set backs in LGBTQ+ rights and mainstreem acceptance of LGBTQ+ people.
