    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[Oral History ]]></dcterms:subject>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Shari was born and raised in Denver. In this oral history she talks about her life growing up in Park Hill. She didn’t hear about same-sex love growing up, and became a teacher. In this oral history she talks about her activism in the women’s, LGBTQ, and educational community. Shari went on to serve as a principal. Shari served with the Gay and Lesbian Center, now the Center on Colfax, in many different ways from leading groups and workshops on coming out, relationships, and social events. She reflects on her life growing up in Park Hill, how it integrated and became a more liberal and open community from 1970 - 2000.  Shari came to work with the SAGE program at the Center, and speaks about developing this program, as well as her activism in applying for a marriage license. Her story teaches us many things, most importantly sharing a sense of community and compassion.]]></dcterms:description>
