About the role
In the 1950s, "coming out" meant quietly acknowledging one's sexual orientation. Today, the term is used by a broad array of social movements. Abigail C. Saguy, a professor of sociology, explains how the phrase "coming out" has evolved over the years and its role in the LGBT rights movement. She also shares how that movement continues to inspire other social movements such as the fat acceptance movement and the undocumented youth movement, among others -- to also "come out."
