Synopsis:

The first collection of the writings and speeches of the founder of the gay liberation movement records his efforts to win acceptance of gays and lesbians as a cultural minority and his reflections on Marxism, spirituality, art, and politics.

Review: Essential reading for anyone trying to understand what it means to be gay, bisexual, transgender or straight. --Urvashi Vaid, author of Virtual Equality

"Editor Will Roscoe has assembled a crackling collection of provocative, inspiring essays written by Hay during the course of his long struggle for freedom and liberation. . . . By documenting the past, as Hay and Roscoe have done here, we can perhaps find some of the answers that we mistakenly believe have eluded us." --William J. Mann, Lambda Book Report

"A fine new edition of Harry Hay's writings. . . . Roscoe's work [is] a model of clear and grounded academic writing." --Al Cotton, The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review

"Harry Hay is a remarkable individual. . . . [Radically Gay] provides wonderful glimpses into Hay's own evolution from Marxist pedant to shamanic faerie elder." --Jack Fertig, San Francisco Bay Times

"Offers invaluable insight into the vision of one man who made it possible for millions to live in freedom and with self-respect." --New York Native
