  • Cultivating the Daughters of Bilitis Lesbian Identity, 1955-1975
    “WHAT A GORGEOUS DYKE!”: CULTIVATING THE DAUGHTERS OF BILITIS LESBIAN IDENTITY, 1955-1975 By Mary S. DePeder A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History Middle Tennessee State University December 2018 Thesis Committee: Dr. Susan Myers-Shirk, Chair Dr. Kelly A. Kolar ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I began my master’s program rigidly opposed to writing a thesis. Who in their right mind would put themselves through such insanity, I often wondered when speaking with fellow graduate students pursuing such a goal. I realize now, that to commit to such a task, is to succumb to a wild obsession. After completing the paper assignment for my Historical Research and Writing class, I was in far too deep to ever turn back. In this section, I would like to extend my deepest thanks to the following individuals who followed me through this obsession and made sure I came out on the other side. First, I need to thank fellow history graduate student, Ricky Pugh, for his remarkable sleuthing skills in tracking down invaluable issues of The Ladder and Sisters. His assistance saved this project in more ways than I can list. Thank-you to my second reader, Dr. Kelly Kolar, whose sharp humor and unyielding encouragement assisted me not only through this thesis process, but throughout my entire graduate school experience. To Dr. Susan Myers- Shirk, who painstakingly wielded this project from its earliest stage as a paper for her Historical Research and Writing class to the final product it is now, I am eternally grateful.

  • Out of the Closet, Into the Archives: Researching
    OUT OF THE CLOSET, INTO THE ARCHIVES: RESEARCHING SEXUAL HISTORIES Amy L. Stone (Trinity University) Jaime Cantrell (Louisiana State University) SHORT SUMMARY Comprised of original essays, Out of the Closet, Into the Archives: Researching Sexual Histories examines the complex process of doing historical archival research on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals and communities. Out of the Closet is the first book to examine the process of LGBT historical research across multiple disciplines. The contributors draw on their experiences conducting research in disciplines such as sociology, African American Studies, English, communications, performance studies, anthropology, and Women’s and Gender Studies within large, public institutions including university and state LGBT archives, as well as within smaller community and private collections. The chapters in this book address four main themes: archival materials; beyond textuality; quare experiences in the archive; and cataloguing queer lives. These essays engage with pressing issues and challenges at the forefront of academic research in LGBT archives—ranging from personal reflections on the problematic nature of interpreting sexualities in archival documents, manuscripts, and ephemera to the difficulties inherent in historicizing archival normativity with regard to (trans)gender, race, class, ethnicity, and format marginalizations. Most importantly, Out of the Closet is the first collection of writings from scholars reflecting on the process of engaging in LGBT historical research. EXTENDED DESCRIPTION Allan Bérubé began his project on World War II gay and lesbian lives with letters that his neighbor retrieved from a dumpster, and the appendix of George Chauncey’s germinal work on the history of gay life in pre-war New York City describes elaborate historical research in municipal records, the files of anti-prostitution societies, medical journals, and other unusual sources.

O’Brien, Chair In this dissertation, the introduction defines the erotic-mystical mode, using the poetry and prose of the five feminist writers that I argue constitute a core poetic movement. Based on their shared understandings of the centrality of this disruptive new paradigm—with important influences from English Romanticism—these poets create both lyric and prose works that position them as major leaders in feminist thought in the seventies. Collapsing conventional binaries, their works offer examples of how to live, on the deepest level, as life-affirming beings, regardless of gender, race, class, or sexuality, on a damaged, yet still vibrant, planet. They never deny difference, embracing all that is living, yet still grounded in faith in possibilities of collective communication.

(November 4, 1933 – November 10, 2011) Early life. Born in Cincinnati to Dorothy Vernon Black, a secretary, and Philip Strang Grier, a doctor, Grier grew up in several midwestern US cities. She claims she came out as a lesbian at 12 years old and spent her life finding as much information about female homosexuality as she could. [1] Her parents divorced when she was 13 years old. Grier went to the library to discover more about lesbians after noticing her own behavior patterns were different from her friends. She told her mother that she was homosexual, and her mother replied, “No, because you’re a woman, you’re a lesbian. And since 12 years old is too young to make such a decision, let’s wait six months before we tell the newspapers.” [2] She began collecting books when her mother gave her a copy of The Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall when she was 16 years old.

Likewise, Black women’s memoir and autobiography have been read for their illustrations of Black feminist politics, historical narratives, and intellectual histories. However, less attention has been paid to the specific role of embodiment in the liminal genres of Black queer hybrid memoir texts, including semi-autobiographical fiction and poetry, book-length memoir essay texts, and forms like Audre Lorde’s biomythography. My dissertation Afrekete’s Room: Mapping the Shape of Space and Narrative in Black Queer Women’s Writing intervenes in this conversation to argue that within these texts, Black queer women and trans people mediate and narrate embodied experiences in order to position Black queer bodies as potential sites of knowledge production about gender, blackness, erotics, and subjectivity.
