Descripción
Sumario:There is a new voters' bloc in America: lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender individuals. This guide provides a systematic empirical survey of the phenomemon, explains its origins and growth and puts it in context. Concurrent with the civil rights and women's rights movement of the 1960s, the homosexual rights movement has emerged as one of the most important, yet misunderstood social developments in American history. This volume traces its progress from the political closet to the pre-1950s era, through the Stonewall Riots of 1969 and the dark days of the AIDS epidemic, to the present day level of tolerance.
