- Summary:
- 'Sexual and Gender Minority History' provides important lessons about power, marginalization, intersectionality, self-determination, and the struggle for social justice through examining the history of sexual and gender minorities in the United States and Germany during the 19th and 20th centuries. While the book's main focus is on the United States in the 20th century, it begins in Germany with an examination of the origin of sexual and gender minority identities and the rise and fall of the first movement for sexual and gender minority rights. The American history highlights contributions and developments across race, ethnicity, and social class.
