There are, unfortunately, candidates in this election whose personal integrity can be questioned. Those are the candi­ dates in this election conducting cam­ paigns of hate and fear. Homosexuals have been picked as their target. On the fortunate side, polls show the candidates conducting the hate and fear campaigns badly trailing, except in the mayoral race where Kathy Whit­ mire is only slightly ahead of Louie Welch.

  • Gay Liberation Comes to Dixieœslowly
    Gay Liberation Comes to Dixie–Slowly Hastings Wyman This article examines a little studied aspect of southern politics: the emergence of gay rights activists as players in mainstream southern politics. The article examines state-by-state electoral successes of openly-gay candidates throughout the South as well as the impact of gay rights activists on public policy (at both the local and state level), hate crimes legislation, employment rights, higher education, and private business. The movement of homosexuals from the shadows of society to open participation in public life has been a major national trend during the past three decades, and the South has not been in the forefront of this development. However, significant evidence suggests that, as Dixie has accommo- dated to other social changes, it is adapting to gay liberation—albeit more slowly than the rest of the nation. How Many Gays in the South? It is likely that the South has about the same share of gay residents as the rest of the country. According to a 1998 study of exit polls conducted by the Policy Institute of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF), all regions of the nation, including the South, have about the same share of gay voters (Bailey 2000). In exit polling for the 2000 presidential election, nationally, some four percent of voters answered yes to the question, are you gay or lesbian? In the South, three percent answered yes (CNN.com 2001a). In the 2000 census, same-sex couples who self-identified as “unmarried partners” were as prevalent in the South as elsewhere.

Cowboys, “Queers,” and Community: The AIDS Crisis in Houston and Dallas, 1981-1996. Master of Arts (History), August 2014, 105 pp., bibliography, 78 titles. This thesis examines the response to the AIDS crisis in Houston and Dallas, two cities in Texas with the most established gay communities highest number of AIDS incidences. Devoting particular attention to the struggles of the Texas’ gay men, this work analyzes the roadblocks to equal and compassionate care for AIDS, including access to affordable treatment, medical insurance, and the closure of the nation’s first AIDS hospital. In addition, this thesis describes the ways in which the peculiar nature of AIDS as an illness transformed the public perception of sickness and infection. This work contributes to the growing study of gay and lesbian history by exploring the transformative effects of AIDS on the gay community in Texas, a location often forgotten within the context of the AIDS epidemic.
