For the Love of Mattachine Society
Add to cart
The Mattachine Society was the brainchild of Harry Hay and a small group of leftist homosexual men in Los Angeles in the early 1950s. Mattachine pioneered the definition of homosexuals as a cultural minority with the capacity to unify and exercise political power in the United States. In its early turbulent years most of the Mattachine founders were forced out but continued their activism through other organizations and publications like One Magazine. This issue features illustrations by Carla Lopez Estrada and Jacob Hartmann.
