In Free Comrades, Hay's contributions are predated by fifty years. Read Free Comrades for a refreshing outlook on a lost social history. Harry Hay is widely recognized as the pioneer of the gay liberation movement. In Free Comrades, Hay's contributions are predated by fifty years. By investigating journals, books, and public records between 1895 and 1917, Terence Kissack adds a new foundation to the history of homosexuality in the United States. The anarchist position on individual freedoms was used to defend same-sex partnerships and break down taboos within their own milieu, while bringing the challenge to the rest of society. At the time, the public's entrenched social conservatism instituted a complete blackout of the topic. It was in Will Durant and Emma Goldman's lectures, and in papers such as Benjamin Tucker's Liberty and Leonard Abbott's The Free Comrade, that the personal unquestionably became the political. The trial and imprisonment of Oscar Wilde, the lively discourse over Walt Whitman's perceived homosexual themes, and the blatant inclusion of homosexual relations in Alexander Berkman's Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist, acted as springboards for broadening this lively debate. By defending the right to enter into same-sex partnerships, free from social and governmental constraints, the anarchists of their time posed a challenge to society still not met today. Read Free Comrades for a refreshing outlook on a lost social history. Terence Kissack is the executive director of the San Francisco Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Historical Society. He earned his PhD at CUNY, and his writings have appeared in Radical History Review and Journal of the History of Sexuality.
