  • Meet Pioneer of Gay Rights, Harry Hay
    Meet Pioneer of Gay Rights, Harry Hay His should be a household name. by Anne-Marie Cusac August 9, 2016 Harry Hay is the founder of gay liberation. This lovely interview with Hay by Anne-Marie Cusac was published in the September 1998 issue of The Progressive magazine. Then-editor Matt Rothschild called Hay "a hero of ours," writing that he should be a household name. He wrote: "This courageous and visionary man launched the modern gay-rights movement even in the teeth of McCarthyism." In 1950 Hay started the first modern gay-rights organization, the underground Mattachine Society, which took its name from a dance performed by masked, unmarried peasant men in Renaissance France, often to protest oppressive landlords. According to Hay's 1996 book, Radically Gay, the performances of these fraternities satirized religious and political power. Harry Hay was one of the first to insist that lesbians and gay men deserve equality. And he placed their fight in the context of a wider political movement. "In order to earn for ourselves any place in the sun, we must with perseverance and self-discipline work collectively . for the first-class citizenship of Minorities everywhere, including ourselves," he wrote in 1950. At first, Hay could not find anyone who would join him in forming a political organization for homosexuals. He spent two years searching among the gay men he knew in Los Angeles. Although some expressed interest in a group, all were too fearful to join a gay organization that had only one member. But drawing on his years as a labor organizer, Hay persisted.

    Hay, Harry (1912-2002) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. A portrait of Harry Hay by Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Stathis Orphanos. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Courtesy Stathis Orphanos.Image Activist Harry Hay is recognized as one of the principal founders of the gay liberation copyright © Stathis movement in the United States. An original member of both the Mattachine Society Orphanos.All Rights Reserved. and the Radical Faeries, he devoted his life to the cause of equality and dignity for glbtq people. Early Life and Education Hay's parents, both American, met and married in South Africa, where his father Henry Hay, known as Big Harry, was a manager in Cecil Rhodes' mining company. When the birth of their first child was impending, Margaret Neall Hay sailed for England, where their son Henry, Jr., called Little Harry, was born on April 7, 1912 in Worthington, Sussex. The senior Hay saw little of his family for the next two years, but when World War I broke out, he sent for them to join him in Chile, where he had another mining job. After suffering a serious injury on a work site, Hay resettled the family in California. "Big Harry" Hay was harsh, opinionated, demanding, and quick to criticize anything that he perceived as less than perfect in his elder son, from insufficient "manliness" to his grades in school. In later years Hay spoke of his determination to live a life completely different from his father's because of his "personal hatred" for the man. Hay stated that he was aware--however indistinctly at first--of his sexual orientation at a very early age.

  • LGBTQ Timeline
    Follow the Yellow Brick Road: Re-Learning Consent from Our ForeQueers Timeline 1917: Individuals considered to be “psychopathically inferior,” including LGBT people, are banned from entering the US. 1921: US Naval report on entrapment of “perverts” within its ranks. In 1943, the US military officially bans gays and lesbians from serving in the Armed Forces. 1924: The Society for Human Rights, an American homosexual rights organization founded by Henry Gerber, is established in Chicago. It is the first recognized gay rights organization in the US. A few months after being chartered, the group ceased to exist in the wake of the arrest of several of the Society's members. 1935: “Successful” electric shock therapy treatment of homosexuality is reported at American Psychological Association meeting. 1950: The Mattachine Society, founded by Harry Hay and a group of Los Angeles male friends, is formed to protect and improve the rights of homosexuals. 1955: The Daughters of Bilitis (DOB), the first lesbian rights organization in the US, forms in San Francisco. It is conceived as a social alternative to lesbian bars, which were considered illegal and thus subject to raids and police harassment. It lasted for fourteen years and became a tool of education for lesbians, gay men, researchers, and mental health professionals. As the DOB gained members, their focus shifted to providing support to women who were afraid to come out, by educating them about their rights and gay history. 1963: Gay man, African-American civil rights and nonviolent movement leader Bayard Rustin is the chief organizer of the March on Washington.

The group met in secret, and the members knew each other by pseudonyms or first names only. An unidentified lawyer was consulted by the members to provide legal advice on creating such a publication. By January 1953, they created ONE Magazine with the tagline “a homosexual viewpoint.” It was the first national LGBTQ magazine to openly discuss sexual and gender diversity, and it was a flashpoint for all those LGBTQ individuals who didn’t have a community to call their own. ONE has survived a number of major changes in the 60 years since those first meetings. It was a publisher, a social service organization, and a research and educational institute; it was the target of major thefts, FBI investigations, and U.S. Postal Service confiscations; it was on the losing side of a real estate battle and on the winning side of a Supreme Court case; and on a number of occasions, it was on the verge of shuttering… only to begin anew.

Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Arts) Department of Scottish Literature School of Critical Studies College of Arts University of Glasgow June 2019 Abstract Examining love in the life and work of Edwin Morgan (1920-2010), this thesis argues that Morgan’s literary and artistic demonstrations of love inherently respond to the legal, political, and social changes of Scotland in the twentieth and twenty-first century. By mapping Morgan’s biographical contexts within Scotland’s wider social history and culture, the impact of the nation and its shifting attitudes on Morgan’s collected works is delineated. An examination of material only available to researchers, including Morgan’s correspondence and scrapbooks held in Archives and Special Collections at Glasgow University Library, supplements this comprehensive exploration of the significance of love in Morgan’s life and work.

  • History of the Faeries (Including: Murray Edelman, Joey Cain, and Agnes De Garron) January 15Th 2012
    1 History of the Faeries (including: Murray Edelman, Joey Cain, and Agnes de Garron) January 15th 2012 http://vimeo.com/35171786 Recorded by: Peter "speck" Lien ([email protected]) Transcribed by: Husk (Michael James Lecker) ([email protected]) Summary: Joey Cain, Murray Edelman and Agnes de Garron pass down their understanding of early faerie beginnings – personally and generally. Before the Sirst gathering, The “First Gathering” and discussed the role Harry Hay played in the formation of the Radical Faeries as well as feedback and discussion from many faeries present at this circle – held at the William Way LGBT Center on January 15th 2012 during the Philadelphia Faerie MLK Gatherette. Body: Joey Cain: “My name is Joey Cain and I live in San Francisco. I have been involved with the faeries since about 1980 and was very involved with Harry Hay and John Burnside in their care in San Francisco. I was part of the group that moved them up from LA and took care of them in the last ten years of their lives. I have been researching not just Radical Faerie history, but what I call the roots of the Radical Faeries, which implies that there is a set of values that we share as Radical Faeries and there is an actual historical precedent for those values as gay men have come from. So part of my larger project is starting with Walt Whitman, who I do see as the sort of inventor of not just modern gay male consciousness, but I think of a particular way of men viewing themselves.

Paula Nadelstern has achieved international recognition for her innovative and complex designs inspired by the bilateral symmetry of kaleidoscopic images. Her artistic vision encompasses science, history, and tradition, expressed in crystalline patterns composed of slivers of jewel-like fabrics. At Paula’s suggestion, this landmark exhibition in a major American museum will include a display of both historical and contemporary kaleidoscopes. Stacy Hollander, the exhibition organizer, has asked Charles Karadimos to act as an advisor. Although the antique scopes will be secured and out of reach in glassed latrines, the contemporary scopes will serve as a hands-on exhibit.
