Some reflected on their desires in quiet solitude, while others endured verbal, physical, and legal harassment for publicly expressing homosexual interest through words or actions.Long Before Stonewall seeks to uncover the many iterations of same-sex desire in colonial America and the early Republic, as well as to expand the scope of how we define and recognize homosocial behavior. Thomas A. Foster has assembled a pathbreaking, interdisciplinary collection of original and classic essays that explore topics ranging from homoerotic imagery of black men to prison reform to the development of sexual orientations. This collection spans a regional and temporal breadth that stretches from the colonial Southwest to Quaker communities in New England. It also includes a challenge to commonly accepted understandings of the Native American berdache. Throughout, connections of race, class, status, and gender are emphasized, exposing the deep foundations on which modern sexual political movements and identities are built.HomosexualityUnited StatesHistory18th centuryGay peopleUnited StatesHistory18th centuryAmerica.Before.Long.Republic.Stonewall.behavior.colonial.define.desire.early.expand.homosocial.iterations.many.recognize.same-sex.scope.seeks.uncover.well.HomosexualityHistoryGay peopleHistory306.76/6097309033Foster Thomas A1569494MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778103803321Long before Stonewall3842446UNINA
