Gay Resistance: The Hidden History
Deaderick, Sam and Tamara Turner. Red Letter Press, 1997 (Revised Ed.). Softbound. Foreword by Roger Simpson. Design by Susan McDonald. Compiled from articles published between 1978 and '80 in the Freedom Socialist newspaper, this chronicle 'capture[s] with stunning clarity the stakes in the battles of the 1970s . . . and the "betrayal" by liberals whose "discreet public information campaigns . . . ignored the homophobic assault."' Reprinted here by Red Letter (their ad insert gives a fascinating glimpse at early 1990s radical publishing aesthetics), with an eye-catching Helen Gilbert–designed cover that incorporates a detail of a 1927 Soviet film poster by the Sternberg brothers.
In lovely shape: tight, square spine and clean, unmarked interior. Only the very gentlest of edge-wear. 53 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
