Description
Victory: The Triumphant Gay Revolution is a groundbreaking history of the struggle for American marriage equality. Linda Hirshman tells the story of how a dedicated minority transformed the notion of marriage and forged a campaign for cultural change that will serve as a model for future political movements. Through new interviews with movement leaders, including Frank Kameny and Phyllis Lyon, Evan Wolfson of Freedom to Marry, and Kirsten Gillibrand, Hirshman offers an insider's view of the crucial struggle leading to change. This comprehensive history is both inspiring and informative, providing a nuanced understanding of the complex issues at play. By examining the key players and pivotal moments in this campaign, Hirshman sheds light on the power of grassroots activism and the importance of sustained effort in bringing about social change.
