Omschrijving
Before the gay rights movement had a name, Harry Hay had a question: Who are we?
At a time when gay men were labeled criminals, sinners, and mentally ill, Hay dared to imagine something radically different. In 1948--decades before Stonewall--he proposed that gay people were not broken individuals but a cultural minority with unique gifts to offer the world. That vision would help ignite the modern gay rights movement.
This lyrical biography in verse traces Hay's life from a bullied boy in the 1920s to a founder of the Mattachine Foundation, the first enduring gay rights organization in the United States, and later to the spiritual community of the Radical Faeries. Along the way, Hay wrestled with politics, love, and belonging--never abandoning his search for gay identity rooted in dignity and purpose.
More than a life story, this book invites readers to consider how identity is shaped, claimed, and transformed--and how one person's daring vision can help change history.
