    Memo to the Historic Preservation Commission HEARING DATE: March 21, 2012 Project Name: Landmark Initiation Application 301 Geary St, aka 247 Powell, Gold Dust Lounge Case Number: 2012.0118L Staff Contact Moses Corrette, Preservation Planner [email protected] (415) 558-6295 Reviewed By: Tim Frye, Preservation Coordinator On February 1, 2012, the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) received a report by Christopher VerPlanck and a request by several members of the public to consider initiation of the Gold Dust Lounge at located at 301 Geary Street, aka 247 Powell Street as an Article 10 Landmark. On February 15, 2012, the HPC conducted a hearing to consider initiating Landmark designation for the Gold Dust Lounge. The HPC acknowledged that while there was documentation of the background history, more information is required to determine if the Gold Dust Lounge possesses local cultural significance to justify Article 10 Landmark designation. Responses to HPC Requests On February 23, the Department summarized the HPC comments and questions in a letter to each party (attached). On March 12, 2012, the Department received three reports each evaluating the Gold Dust Lounge. First, a revised DPR 523 form from Christopher VerPlanck finds significance in support of designation. The second and third reports commissioned by Coblenz, Patch, Duffy & Bass LLP on behalf of the building owners were prepared by Garavaglia Architecture, and by Preservation Architecture find no significance to support designation. The following table identifies where each report addresses the HPC’s comments: HPC Request VerPlanck Report: Garavaglia Report: Preservation DPR 523 Form DPR 523 Form and Architecture Report: Cover Letter Historic Resource Evaluation 1.

  • Martyrdom and American Gay History: Secular Advocacy, Christian Ideas, and Gay Assimilation
    MARTYRDOM AND AMERICAN GAY HISTORY: SECULAR ADVOCACY, CHRISTIAN IDEAS, AND GAY ASSIMILATION A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Brett A. Krutzsch May 2015 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Rebecca Alpert, Advisory Chair, Department of Religion Dr. Laura Levitt, Department of Religion Dr. David Harrington Watt, Department of History Dr. Janet Jakobsen, External Member, Barnard College ii © Copyright 2015 by Brett Krutzsch All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT “Martyrdom and American Gay History: Secular Advocacy, Christian Ideas, and Gay Assimilation” is an analysis of gay martyr discourses from the 1970s through 2014. In particular, the dissertation examines the archives, narrative representations, memorials, and media depictions of Harvey Milk, Matthew Shepard, Tyler Clementi, and AIDS. The project’s primary focus is to investigate the role of religious rhetoric in facilitating American gay assimilation. Discourses of gay martyrdom reveal that secular gay advocates habitually employed Protestant Christian ideas in order to present gay Americans as similar to the dominant culture of straight Christians, a strategy that became increasingly prevalent by the end of the twentieth century after gays were blamed for spreading a national plague through sexual licentiousness. In turn, discourses of gay martyrdom expose the recurrence of Christian ideas in promoting, while concurrently foreclosing, the parameters of gay social inclusion. “Martyrdom and American Gay History” also questions the politics of martyrdom and analyzes why some deaths have been mourned as national tragedies. Milk, Shepard, and Clementi, the three most commonly-invoked gay martyrs, represent a narrow fraction of gay Americans that only includes white, middle-class, gay men.

  • Alternative Media and the Search for Queer Space
    CHAPTER 15 The Politics of Location Alternative Media and the Search for Queer Space he experience of living queer has typically been located at the crossroads of embodiment and disembodiment. We are defined by our corporeal selves, Tour sexual desires and affectional preferences. As David Bell and Jon Binnie write, “[E]roticism is the basis of [our] community” (87). We tell each other to come out because we wish to be visible as queer; we wish to embody a real iden - tity. Simultaneously, we are disembodied by our cultures. We are ordered to disap - pear, to inhabit a closet where we can’t be seen by the straights, the young, and the innocent. We are to ld not to “speak its name,” not to “flaunt it.” Our experience of culture—our sexual citizenship, as it were—is fraught with this uncomfort - able double consciousness. We often engage in commerce, in the arts, in politi - cal activism, precisely to find a visible viable place in our culture, a place where our embodied identities need not feel the erasure of a closeting hegemony. Jeffrey Weeks argues that the sexual citizen “makes a claim to transcend the lim - its of the personal sphere by going public, but the going public is, in a necessary but nevertheless paradoxical move, about protecting the possibilities of private life and private choice.” This way of doing citizenship, Weeks goes on to say, is the only way that “difference can [ever] find a proper home” (37). Let us think about the concept of “home” as it relates to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgen - der (LGBT) people.
