FOR CHARLEY SHIVELY, GAY LIBERATN WAS ABOUT SEX AND REBELLN, NOT EQUALY

For Charley Shively, Gay Liberatn Was About Sex and Rebelln, Not Equaly. Shively was a pneerg gay liberatn activist on the sle, if not wh the name regnn, of Harvey Milk.

As Shively’s life shows, gay liberatn often sistepped ncerns about state-sanctned rights; fact, Shively and many others of his generatn fundamentally rejected the pillars of Amerin society—relign, palism, and the fay.
