Have pride in history.
A rich and
sweeping photographic history of the Queer Liberation Movement, from
the creators and curators of the massively popular Instagram account
@lgbt_history, released in time for the 50th anniversary of the
Stonewall Riots.
Through the lenses of protest, power, and pride, We Are Everywhere
is an essential and empowering introduction to the history of the
fight for queer liberation. Combining exhaustively researched
narrative with meticulously curated photographs, the book traces
queer activism from its roots in late-nineteenth-century Europe--long
before the pivotal Stonewall Riots of 1969--to the gender warriors
leading the charge today. Featuring more than 300 images from more
than seventy photographers and twenty archives, this inclusive and
intersectional book enables us to truly see queer history unlike
anything before, with glimpses of activism in the decades preceding
and following Stonewall, family life, marches, protests,
celebrations, mourning, and Pride. By challenging many of the
assumptions that dominate mainstream LGBTQ+ history, We Are
Everywhere shows readers how they can--and must--honor the queer
past in order to shape our liberated future.
