Josh Hollands: Book Review: Trade unions and LGBT activism
International Socialism Journal nr. 148, okt 15 – side 213
Note: Miriam Frank, Out in the Union: A Labor History of Queer America (Temple University Press, 2014), £20.99

In the past year there has been increased interest, both in the academy and in the broad left, in notions of solidarity between lesbians, gay men, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people and the organised working class. This has been spurred on by the release of the film Pride, which details how a group of activists formed Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners during the 1984-5 strike against Margaret Thatcher’s pit closures. The recent publication of Miriam Frank’s detailed narrative of LGBT people organising within and alongside unions in the United States is therefore timely.

Lesbian and gay authors began its development by unearthing a history that included the movement headed by Magnus Hirschfeld in Germany before and after the First World War, the development of struggles in 1950s America, and the inspiring example of the Russian Revolution.

Colin Wilson: Ghosts of the past return

Socialistisk Revy nr. 3, apr 98 – side 31

Peter Morgan: Class divisions in the gay community
International Socialism Journal nr. 78, mar 98 – side 77
Note: Gay politics are at a crossroads. The celebration of the 'pink economy' which seemed so dominant in the 1980s has increasingly turned sour for many gays and lesbians. The annual Pride march is now in danger of splitting in two, as many react against the commercialism and depoliticisation which has accompanied increasing sponsorship by gay businesses. Peter Morgan examines the class divide among gays and lesbians and traces the ways in which it expresses itself in the debate about the future of the movement.
