  • The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives
    The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives by Rebecka Taves Sheffield A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information Mark S. Bonham Centre for Sexual Diversity Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Rebecka Taves Sheffield 2015 The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives Rebecka Taves Sheffield Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information Mark S. Bonham Centre for Sexual Diversity Studies University of Toronto 2015 ABSTRACT Lesbian and gay archives, particularly those established within the context of the homophile, gay liberation, and lesbian feminist movements, serve as social movement organizations (SMOs). That is, they are organizational and administrative members of activist communities that acquire, manage, and share resources for the purpose of collective action for social change. Archives are nevertheless absent from literature on social movements and social movement theory. This project was designed to expand on current research in the fields of archival studies, social movement studies, and sexuality studies to better understand the experiences of lesbian and gay archives. A multiple case study was conducted at four community grown archives: The Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives, the ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives, The June L. Mazer Lesbian Archives, and the Lesbian Herstory Archives. Site visits took place over six months in 2013 and 2014, during which time interviews were conducted with 33 community archivists, volunteers, and community partners. In addition, more than 20,000 pages of organizational records related to the founding and development of these archives were reviewed. By tracing the emergence, development, and resource struggles of four lesbian and gay archives, this dissertation shows how these organizations have been shaped by broader movement goals, local geographies, socio-political structures, and the particular interests and energies of those who have nurtured their collections over the years.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Tones Smith Pathology, Bias and Queer Diagnoses: A Crip Queer Consciousness ABSTRACT The medical industrial complex has historically contributed to the oppression and pathology of queer and disabled people in a myriad of ways; through forced medication and institutionalization, as well as denial of self-determination and identity. Queer theory and disability theory both challenge modes of normalcy directly related to both queer and disabled identities by using a lens that encompasses sexuality, gender, embodiment, health and impairment. This paper will use queer theory and disability theory to analyze the ways in which queer and disabled identities are connected and co-constructed, as well as, the ways in which these intersections may expand our thinking in social work. The current diagnosis and controversy around Gender Identity Disorder as a diagnosis in the DSM will be examined through the lenses of queer theory and disability theory, to aid in the continued movement to depathologize queer and disabled identities. It is the perspective of this paper that the liberation of queer people is directly linked to the liberation of disabled people and that trans/queer justice is disability justice.

  • Celebrating Pride: Loud and Proud
    Celebrating Pride: Loud and Proud This year marks 100 years of the Longue Vue story. We are taking advantage of this benchmark to reflect on the complex phenomenon of shared histories, including consideration of who claims authority over historical narratives, according to which social and cultural priorities and values, and through what voices and forums. The present Playhouse exhibit is one such reflection. Celebrating Pride coincides with the 6th annual Longue Vue Family Equality Day, an event designed to further Edith and Edgar Stern’s inclusive definitions of “family.” It features six local LGBTQ+ identified and allied visual artists specializing in various mediums, from pottery to photography to watercolor paintings. The diversity of the artwork displayed here mirrors the diversity of the LGBTQ+ community: Far from monolithic, this community embraces a wide range of identities, philosophies, aesthetic priorities, and personal styles. The present exhibit invites us to assess where we are in the recent history of the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights and true equality – a recent history that saw early articulation around the time Edith and Edgar Stern were first establishing their family home here at Longue Vue, in 1921. In 1924, Henry Gerber, a German immigrant in Chicago, founded the first documented gay rights organization in the United States – the Society for Human Rights – and published a few issues of the newsletter “Friendship and Freedom” before police raids caused the group to disband in 1925. It would be many decades before such public efforts on behalf of the gay community would become widely embraced. As of the 1950s, homosexuality and sodomy were illegal in 49 states, and members of the gay community were subject to both legal and social violence, harassment, and discrimination.

The media create the way by which we perceive the world. We have our own opinions, but these are made of the information we get from the media. We may think differently of the things that are presented to us, but the basic notion of what is good and what is bad is often adopted from an official source. This thesis deals with gay people as depicted in the press, literature, radio broadcasts, television, film industry, and theatre. Each of these media has its own special means to catch the attention of an individual and deal with a certain problem.
