Description

A Queer Capital presents the first comprehensive history of LGBT life in Washington D.C., drawing on extensive archival research and personal interviews to reveal a vibrant community spanning more than 125 years. This groundbreaking work explores how lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals established their own spaces before and after World War II, endured some of the harshest anti-gay campaigns in the United States, and mobilised to demand equal treatment and recognition. Author Genny Beemyn tells the interconnected stories of black and white gay communities and individuals, examining how race, gender, and class shaped the construction of gay social worlds in the nation's capital. The book fills a significant gap in LGBTQ+ historical scholarship by documenting the resilience, activism, and cultural contributions of Washington D.C.'s diverse queer population across generations.
