GAY LOUISVILLE: A HISTORY OF JTICE, AND A MARCH TOWARD ACCEPTANCE
We're not om Louisville (we're om Nashville), and we had heard that was an excg gay club. Lots of shriekg bachelorette parti gawkg at the drag queens and gay patrons as if we were zoo animals was the only unpleasant part about beg there. Strippers seemed to enjoy the attentn om the ladi more than they did the attentn they received om their gay brethren.
The majory of the dience appeared to be cis gay men, but there was also a good showg of trans men, non-bary folks, cis and trans women, and sober folk—some leather, some not—all fortably termixg: a rehg change om the segregatn I ually wns at LGBTQ+ events.
In your experience, how is the leather muny perceived by the rt of the gay muny? When the gunman Orlando opened fire on hundreds of revelers at a gay nightclub, he stck at the re of gays’ hard-earned sense of secury, as nightclubs jt like Pulse have for generatns stood as safe spac for people lookg for shelter om harassment, hate and harm. As Ameri mov toward more acceptance of homosexualy, we’re honor-bound to remember the history of anti-gay prejudice that ma plac like Pulse necsary the first place.
#TBT: A QUICK STUDY OF THE BEX ARTS COCKTAIL LOUNGE – LOUISVILLE’S FIRST GAY BAR
Police were there to raid the hoe servg as Louisville Gay Liberatn Front headquarters. The raid they were about to lnch would impact the gay muny Louisville for years, snuffg out the cy’s nascent gay rights movement that had grown up the wake of the Stonewall Inn rts Greenwich Village two years before, the summer of 1969. But would be many years before I nnected the dots between that ltle-noticed police actn so long ago and the appallg lack of awarens of the terrors and tragedi gay people like me had endured the long s of life a cy where, until relatively recently, beg gay for the vast majory of Louisvillians meant worryg steadily about your job, your fay and even your safety.
Members lnched a muny tn urse at UofL aimed at spreadg the word about homosexualy cy where a sual word uld, and often did, end a reer. Others had led protts at two gay bars, allegg their straight owners’ polici — and sky-high beer pric — exploed patrons who had no other place to socialize. Ined, had been precisely to create an alternative away om the bars for gays that had spurred the creatn of Gay Lib ho cy after cy, acrdg to oral histori shared wh me by UofL profsor Cathere Fosl.
Many ci forba gay people to gather anywhere alhol was served, and ma illegal to wear clothg associated wh the oppose genr. In Louisville, a gay man, Jim Fish, agreed 1971 to rent the four-bedroom home his name, and open the Bonnystle hoe to the GLF.

But The Courier-Journal story listed their nam, and, 1971 Louisville, to be associated wh anythg gay-related, pecially the Gay Lib Hoe, meant .
C., where I then lived, and ught the HBO adaptatn of “The Normal Heart, ” Larry Kramer’s searg play about the radil gay rights activism born out of the plague years, as the AIDS epimic began to take s gome toll. I turned the televisn off wh a powerful sense of guilt: Where had I been, when so many other gay people had been fightg, not jt for gay rights, but for their very liv.
THE GAY MEN PROJECT
So sce then, I’ve been studyg the history of the cy where I was born, and where my father’s anctors helped settle, but through the lens of the nstraed liv so many of s gay rints were forced to live for so long. It’s a task that has grown only more urgent as the untry has moved exorably toward full legal rights for gays. So April of last year, jt after the lawyers for the gay marriage platiffs arrived Washgton for oral arguments, I head home to search for the history that I had never known.
I was termed to pay homage to the blood and the guts that had been spent so many years ago creatg a place where arguments over gay marriage uld be taken serly.
