Description

Discover the untold history of the nation's capital with A Queer Capital: A History of Gay Life in Washington D.C. Published by Routledge, this book provides the first comprehensive look at LGBT life in Washington D.C. through extensive archival research and personal interviews. This work reveals a vibrant community spanning more than 125 years. You will learn how lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals established their own unique spaces both before and after World War II. The narrative follows their journey as they survived harsh anti-gay campaigns and organized to demand equal treatment. By telling the stories of both black and white gay communities and individuals, author Genny Beemyn explains how race, gender, and class shaped the development of gay social worlds.
