samenvatting:	As recently as the 1970s, gay and lesbian history was a relatively unexplored field for serious scholars. The past quarter century, however, has seen enormous growth in gay and lesbian studies. The literature is now voluminous; it is also widely scattered and not always easily accessible. In Toward Stonewall, Nicholas Edsall provides a much-needed synthesis, drawing upon both scholarly and popular writings to chart the development of homosexual subcultures in the modern era and the uneasy place they have occupied in Western society. Edsall's survey begins three hundred years ago in northwestern Europe, when homosexual subcultures recognizably similar to those of our own era began to emerge, and it follows their surprisingly diverse paths through the Enlightenment to the early nineteenth century. The book then turns to the Victorian era, tracing the development of articulate and self-aware homosexual subcultures. With a greater sense of identity and organization came new forms of resistance: this was the age that saw the persecution of Oscar Wilde, among others, as well as the medical establishment's labeling of homosexuality as a sign of degeneracy. The book's final section locates the foundations of present-day gay subcultures in a succession of twentieth-century scenes and events--in pre-Nazi Germany, in the lesbian world of interwar Paris, in the law reforms of 1960s England--culminating in the emergence of popular movements in the postwar United States. Rather than examining these groups in isolation, the book considers them in their social contexts and as comparable to other subordinate groups and minority movements. In the process, Toward Stonewall illuminates not only the subcultures that are its primary subject but the larger societies from which they emerged.

A Queer History of the United States /

Michael Bronski.Boston, MA: Beacon Press, 2011 - xx, 287 p.

uitgave:	Boston, MA: Beacon Press, 2011 - xx, 287 p.
annotatie:	Bibliogr.: p. 244-260.
onderwerpen:	lhbtq+-geschiedenis usa
samenvatting:	The first book to cover the entirety of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender history, from pre-1492 to the present. In the 1620s, Thomas Morton broke from Plymouth Colony and founded Merrymount, which celebrated same-sex desire, atheism, and interracial marriage. Transgender evangelist Jemima Wilkinson, in the early 1800s, changed her name to "Publick Universal Friend," refused to use pronouns, fought for gender equality, and led her own congregation in upstate New York. In the mid-nineteenth century, internationally famous Shakespearean actor Charlotte Cushman led an openly lesbian life, including a well-publicized "female marriage." And in the late 1920s, Augustus Granville Dill was fired by W. E. B. Du Bois from the NAACP's magazine the Crisis after being arrested for a homosexual encounter. These are just a few moments of queer history that Michael Bronski highlights in this groundbreaking book.

The End of Straight Supremacy : Realizing Gay Liberation /

Shannon Gilreath.Cambridge [etc.]: Cambridge University Press, 2011 - xiv, 304 p.

uitgave:	Cambridge [etc.]: Cambridge University Press, 2011 - xiv, 304 p.
onderwerpen:	heteronormativiteit homorechten homobeweging lesbische beweging radicaal feminisme homobevrijding normalisering usa
samenvatting:	Rooted in the politics and theories of early gay liberation and radical feminism, Shannon Gilreath's The End of Straight Supremacy presents a cohesive theory of gay life under straight domination. Beginning with a critique of formal equality law, centering on the 'like-straight' demands of liberal equality theory as highlighted in Lawrence v. Texas, Gilreath moves to criticize the gay movement itself, challenging the assimilation politics behind the movement's blithe acceptance of discrimination in the guise of free speech and pornography in the name of sexual liberation, as well as same-sex marriage and transsexuality as tools of straight hegemony. Ultimately, Gilreath rejects both the liberal demand for gay erasure in exchange for meager legal progress and the gay establishment agenda. In The End of Straight Supremacy, Gilreath calls gays and their allies to the difficult task of rethinking what liberation and equality really mean.

samenvatting:	In a world where 76+ countries still have laws against homosexuality, a same-sex kiss can lead to a prison sentence or even death. In those countries, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people face arrest for loving the wrong people. Here, in their own words, activists tell what?s going on: >A man sentenced to prison for sending an amorous text. >A transgender woman who needs anonymous health care. >An archbishop who wonders: Dildos for AIDS widows? >A gay priest who struggles with his own homophobia. >Gay rights groups under attack from police and mobs. >The exuberance of Uganda?s first Pride Parade. The authors include LGBT activists in Cameroon, Uganda, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Zimbabwe. Many chapters of this book appeared first in the "Erasing 76 Crimes" blog, which exposes the human toll of anti-LGBT laws. Proceeds from the sale of the book will be used to support the blog as well as the work of activists seeking a better life for sexual minorities worldwide.

The Martin Duberman Reader : The Essential Historical, Biographical, and Autobiographical Writings /

Martin Duberman.New York, NY [etc.]: The New Press, 2013 - ix, 374 p.

uitgave:	New York, NY [etc.]: The New Press, 2013 - ix, 374 p.
onderwerpen:	homomannen homobeweging feminisme homostudies hiv/aids racisme homocultuur politiek stonewall-rellen geschiedenis usa 1945 2000
samenvatting:	For the past fifty years, prize-winning historian Martin Duberman?s writings have established him as one of our preeminent public intellectuals. Founder of the first graduate program in LGBT studies in the country, he is perhaps best known for his biographies of Paul Robeson, Lincoln Kirstein, and Howard Zinn. Duberman is also a playwright and essayist. His writings have explored the shocking attempts by the medical establishment to 'cure' homosexuality; Stonewall, before and after; the age of AIDS; the struggle for civil rights; the fight for economic and racial justice; and Duberman?s vision for reclaiming a radical queer past from the creeping centrism of the gay movement. The Martin Duberman Reader assembles the core of Duberman?s most important writings, offering a wonderfully comprehensive overview of our lives and times - and giving us a crucial touchstone for a new generation of activists, scholars, and readers.

Documenting Intimate Matters : Primary Sources for a History of Sexuality in America /

ed. by Thomas A. Foster ; foreword by John D'Emilio and Estelle B. Freedman.Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 2012 - xv, 237 p.

uitgave:	Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 2012 - xv, 237 p.
annotatie:	Bibliogr.: p. 231-232.
onderwerpen:	seksualiteit seksuele oriëntatie usa geschiedenis
samenvatting:	Over time, sexuality in America has changed dramatically. Frequently redefined and often subject to different systems of regulation, it has been used as a means of control; it has been a way to understand ourselves and others; and it has been at the center of fierce political storms, including some of the most crucial changes in civil rights in the last decade. Edited by Thomas A. Foster, Documenting Intimate Matters features seventy-two documents that collectively highlight the broad diversity inherent in the history of American sexuality. Complementing the third edition of Intimate Matters, by John D?Emilio and Estelle B. Freedman - often hailed as the definitive survey of sexual history in America? - the multiple narratives presented by these documents reveal the complexity of this subject in US history. The historical moments captured in this volume will show that, contrary to popular misconception, the history of sexuality is not a simple story of increased freedoms and sexual liberation, but an ongoing struggle between change and continuity.

It's Not Over : Getting Beyond Tolerance, Defeating Homophobia, and Winning True Equality /

Michelangelo Signorile.Boston, MA ; [etc.]: Houghton Mifflin, 2015 - x, 259 p.

uitgave:	Boston, MA ; [etc.]: Houghton Mifflin, 2015 - x, 259 p.
onderwerpen:	homofobie lhbtq+-burgerrechten media politiek acceptatie usa
samenvatting:	Marriage equality has surged across the country. Closet doors have burst open in business, entertainment, and even major league sports. But as longtime advocate Michelangelo Signorile argues in his most provocative book yet, the excitement of such breathless change makes this moment more dangerous than ever. Puncturing the illusion that victory is now inevitable, Signorile marshals stinging evidence that an age-old hatred, homophobia, is still a basic fact of American life. He exposes the bigotry of the brewing religious conservative backlash against LGBT rights and challenges the complacency and hypocrisy of supposed allies in Washington, the media, and Hollywood. Not just a wake-up call, It's Not Over is also a battle plan for the fights to come in the march toward equality. Signorile tells the stories of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans who have refused to be merely tolerated, or worse, and are demanding full acceptance. And he documents signs of hope in schools and communities finding new ways to combat ignorance, bullying, and fear. Urgent and empowering, It's Not Over is a necessary book from one of our most electrifying voices.
