- Description
- Growing up in New Mexico, the child of working-class Chicago parents, Judy Grahn hungered to connect with the larger world, to create a place for herself beyond the deprivations and repressions of small town, 1950s life. Refusing the imperative to silence that was her inheritance as a woman and as a lesbian, Grahn found her way to poetry and to activism. In the process, she emerged not only as one of the most influential figures of the gay women’s liberation movement, but as a poet whose vision has helped to give voice to long-unexplored dimensions of women’s political and spiritual existence. In telling her life story, Grahn reflects on the profound cultural shifts brought about by the women’s and gay rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s. The “simple” revolution she recounts involved not just the formation of new institutions (the Women’s Press Collective, Oakland Feminist Women’s Health Center, A Woman’s Place Bookstore), but the creation of whole new ways of living, including collective feminist households that cut through the political and social isolation of women. .Throughout, Grahn describes her involvement with iconic scenes and figures from the history of these years.

- Description
- From the 1950s to the late 1990s, agents of the state spied on, interrogated, and harassed gays and lesbians in Canada, employing social ideologies and other practices to construct their targets as threats to society and enemies of the state. Based on official security documents and interviews with gays, lesbians, civil servants, and high-ranking officials, this book offers a personalized account of a national security campaign that violated people's civil rights and freedoms in an attempt to regulate their sexual practices. The authors disclose not only the acts of state repression that accompanied the Canadian war on queers but also forms of resistance that raise questions about just whose security was being protected and about national security as an ideological practice.
