Cox and Michael J. Faris Introduction The early 1970s marked the first publications both in English studies and communication studies to address lesbian and gay issues. In 1973, James W. Chesebro, John F. Cragan, and Patricia McCullough published an article in Speech Monographs exploring consciousness- raising by members of Gay Liberation. The following year, Louie Crew and Rictor Norton’s special issue on The Homosexual Imagination appeared in College English. In the four decades since these publications, the body of work in rhetorical studies within both fields that addresses lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (hereafter LGBTQ) issues has grown quite drastically. While the first few decades marked slow and interstitial development of this work, it has burgeoned into a rigorous, exciting, and diverse body of literature since the turn of the century—a body of literature that shows no signs of slowing down in its growth.

Varney Street Burbank, CA 91502 (818) 295-2500 March 23, 2011 WE WERE HERE 1:00:08 ED (VO/ON) There was nothing extraordinary about the fact that you’d lose the people that you love, ‘cause it’s gonna happen to all of us. It’s just that it happened in this targeted community of people who were disenfranchised and separated from their families. And a whole group of other people stepped up and became their family. 1:00:36 PAUL (VO) We are not some network of people who just like to have sex. We are not some ephemeral subculture that comes and dissolves and goes. This is a community that was tested in a way almost no community on earth is ever tested, and succeeded in what it was trying to do, which is save as many lives of people as it could, stop the civil rights attacks and then try to use that example to transform the world. 1:00:52 ON-SCREEN TEXT WE DON’T (on protest sign) LET OUR FRIENDS GET HURT 1:01:00 PAUL (CONT’D) If you’re ever facing a natural disaster as extraordinary as AIDS was in the- the last quarter of the- the last century, you should be so lucky as to be in a community like the queer community of San Francisco. 1:01:15 DANIEL (VO/ON) When I talk to young people particularly, they’ll say, what was it like? I mean, the only thing I can liken it to is a war zone, but most of us have never lived in a war zone, but it was-- It’s-- You never knew where the bomb was gonna drop.
