MAKING COMMUNITY: THE PLACES AND15 SPACES OF LGBTQ COLLECTIVE IDENTITY FORMATION Christina B. Hanhardt Introduction In the summer of 2012, posters reading "MORE GRINDR=FEWER GAY BARS” appeared taped to signposts in numerous gay neighborhoods in North America—from Greenwich Village in New York City to Davie Village in Vancouver, Canada.1 The signs expressed a brewing fear: that the popularity of online lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) social media—like Grindr, which connects gay men based on proximate location—would soon replace the bricks-and-mortar institutions that had long facilitated LGBTQ community building.

  • Harvey Milk, "You've Got to Have Hope" (24 June 1977)

    Harvey Milk, "You've Got to Have Hope" (24 June 1977)

    Voices of Democracy 6 (2011): 63‐82 Black & Morris 63 HARVEY MILK, "YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE HOPE" (24 JUNE 1977) Jason Edward Black The University of Alabama Charles E. Morris III Boston College Abstract: This essay examines Harvey Milk's 1977 address "You've Got to Have Hope" for the ways that it reflects the gay rights politics of its time—simultaneously in San Francisco and across the nation. Specifically, this essay explores how Milk emphasized a populist rhetoric that united the gay community and its straight allies, while also emphasizing the imperative of keeping gay leadership empowered. Ultimately, Milk bridged his constituencies through a theme of hope. Key Words: Harvey Milk; LGBTQ politics; gay rights issues; populism; hope; movement leadership; LGBTQ movements; gay rights movements The release of the 2008 Focus Features film Milk—written by Dustin Lance Black, directed by Gus Van Sant, and starring Sean Penn—did much to illuminate the life and times of Harvey Milk. A grassroots gay activist and San Francisco city supervisor during the late 1970s, Milk was one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States. Following suit, the lingering afterglow of the film produced a wellspring of contemporary Milk memories, most recently drawn upon in the debates over Proposition 8, California's anti‐gay marriage initiative.1 However, even before the award‐winning film made its way onto the silver screen and into the hearts of the Academy Awards selection committee, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) activists and leaders had done much to honor Milk's legacy.2 Coming immediately after Milk's untimely death by assassination in November 1978, and continuing to the present, there have been many efforts to commemorate his inspiration for and impact on gay and LGBTQ strength, pride, and alliances with other marginalized and oppressed groups, as well as with those in the dominant public.
