Summary:
During the
1950s
and
1960s
,
ONE
magazine -- the first openly
gay
magazine in the United States -- offered a positive viewpoint of homosexuality and encouraged
gay
people to resist discrimination and persecution. Despite a limited monthly circulation of only a few thousand, the magazine influenced the substance, character, and tone of the early American
gay
rights movement. This book is a collection of
letters
written to the magazine, a small number of which were published in
ONE
, but most of them were not. The
letters
candidly explore issues such as police harassment of
gay
and
lesbian
communities, antigay job purges, and the philosophical, scientific, and religious meanings of homosexuality.
