This documentary by Greta Schiller takes a look at the hidden, repressed, and often times denied history of gay America in the days before the famous Stonewall riots, and once and for all break the gag order polite society had placed on the third sex.

Released in 1985, it helped put a halt on the notion that homosexuality was a product of societal moral decay, a tactical assertion gay rights opponents would sometimes try to insinuate based on a supposed lack of overwhelming historical evidence to the contrary.


This groundbreaking documentary offers an array of photographs, films, and songs that offer testimony to the presence of a thriving gay subculture. Not in OCLC.
