I also appreciate how diverse this collection is, featuring drag queens, trans women, Black gays and lesbians, all able to tell their stories.
A slight warning, some of the interviews are very much of their time (eg. you'll need to be prepared to see words used that today are considered incredibly offensive) and some people fell into the trap of bringing others down in their efforts to rise (eg. franklin kameny claiming that gay people had it worse than Black people).

The content warnings I included are due to the nature of history and its harsh realities. As this book is about the hardships that the LGTBQIA+ community has gone through, it covers the hard topics as well as use language that we no longer use, but as these are direct readings of the interviews of the time it is important to read with that lens.
Moderate: Racism, Hate crime, Bullying, Outing, Police brutality, Racial slurs, Rape, Religious bigotry, Transphobia, Addiction, Cursing, Drug abuse, Drug use, Grief, Homophobia, Biphobia, Incest, Lesbophobia, Misogyny, and Sexism
