A hike in the woods. Two women in love. And a gunman lying in wait.In 1988, Claudia Brenner and Rebecca Wight set out on a romantic getaway through Pennsylvania’s Appalachian Trail. But they were being watched. A homophobic drifter, hiding in the trees, saw them as targets. What followed was a hate-driven ambush that left Rebecca dead and Claudia clinging to life.This is more than a story of loss—it’s one of survival and resistance. Claudia’s fight to tell their story helped bring national attention to anti-lesbian violence and paved the way for future advocacy.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.Sources-"Eight Bullets: One Woman's Story of Survival of Anti-Gay Violence" by Claudia Brenner"- https://www.amazon.com/Eight-Bullets-Surviving-Anti-Gay-Violence/dp/1563410559 Hosted on Acast.
