In terms of them, has a lot to do wh topics across the sexual and genr spectm, so gayns, homosexualy, lbian history. But also vers nflicts wh the queer spectm, wh the LGBT field, the discsns about trans-exclive femism, and how the gay liberatn movement the 1970s at some pot began to exclu genr non-bary figur, genr transgrsive people, trans* people, and how they were then forced to form their own movement. You mentned that genr non-bary people were beg exclud the 1970s by the gay liberatn movement.

And then there is that tastrophe that she dat to 1973, one paradigmatic moment when Sylvia Rivera had to fight for her right to speak at a Christopher Street day gay pri para. This moment that is so important for gay history was misremembered as a gay whe event. So this is the moment where—at least that’s Stryker’s analysis—the ways part of the trans* movement and the gay liberatn movement, and also the lbian femist movement.

GAY ROMANCE FEATURG ROYALTY/NOBILY

Later on, Stryker scrib this moment the 1990s, where thgs e together aga, where queer theory wh the ntributns of Eve Sedgwick, Judh Butler and Gayle Rub plays a major part, where sex worker activism, sex-posive femism, play a major part and where—and I fd this very nvcg—the ter plays a major part. All that ntribut to new dienc across divis between trans*, gay, lbian, and also whe and people of lour activism. Gee Chncey has wrten on ‘Gay New York‘, a cy that has a whole lerature built around .

Matt Houlbrook fish 1957, the moment when the Wolfenn Report was published, when discsns about legal reform beg the UK, which ultimately lead to the reform of the Sexual Offenc Act 1967, and the partial crimalisatn of male homosexualy. He talks about sex public spac, parks, bathho, and about an emergg mercial culture of gayns the 1920s and ’30s, which affords more and more opportuni for people who uld afford to accs those spac, like the bathho, but also f, and other plac like that. He not only looks at how the police tried to ntrol those spac—how the police sent pla-cloth officers to entrap gay men, men lookg for sex wh other men urals and parks—but also how same-sex sirg men fed new spac for themselv.

CLASSIC GAY MALE LERATURE

Did what you’re scribg amount to some kd of unified queer culture London prr to the partial legalisatn of homosexualy 1967? So there was an exploative relatnship between middle class homosexuals and workg class or lower class htlers. That also then leads to his ncln, movg to discsns about the partial crimalisatn, where he talks about the succsful attempt to tablish somethg like a rpectable middle-class homosexual, performg tradnal masculy, who needs to be protected om all those foreign, non-whe, lower class htlers and blackmailers, who threaten to unrme his class-based rpectabily.

Extraordary that even the legalisatn of homosexualy should be driven by issu of class Bra, more than anythg else.

And this ia of the rpectable mascule, middle class homosexual. Anythg that happened before that was only emergent at bt, but never reached the anized lobbyg power that was behd the drive to crimalize homosexualy later on.

MY GAY MIDDLE AG

Kev Mumford’s Not Straight, Not Whe: Black Gay Men om the March on Washgton to the AIDS Crisis. That is a book that I chose bee tak to black gay history, and brgs up the qutn of tersectnaly between anti-racist stggl and anti-homophobic stggl.

But I thk the book do fely manage to e up wh a very sophistited view of black gay activism, and black gay activists, between what often has been scribed as the homophobia of civil rights activism… There was this kd of excln of homosexuals om the black civil rights movement. So on the one hand, there was this excln wh the black muny, and on the other si, also ongog racism wh the gay muny.

It was a long stggle om the 1970s, to move beyond the predomance of whens the gay liberatn movement. Black gay men are scribed here as beg ught that double bd, and the book scrib how they tried to al wh that suatn.

“There was this excln wh the black muny, and on the other si, also ongog racism wh the gay muny”. He eded gay magaz and the black gay poetry anthology In the Life. This was an important moment that opened up new possibili and new self-fashngs for black gay men.

On the other si you have a whe gay objectifyg gaze that almost do the same thg, that imag black gay bodi as hyper-virile sex mach wh big penis.

And people like Joseph Beam tried to fe a pletely different view of black gay masculy as sensive as well, as possibly also feme, and as plex and lookg for muny and sociabily. It’s not that relign didn’t play a role Euro-Amerin gay and lbian movements. But I thk ’s particularly important a black gay ntext.
