I’m writing my final paper for English 575 (it’s finishing up nicely), and I just read:
An entire book could and should be devoted to the influential sensibility showcased in Fag Rag. (7)
Hmmmm…
Moore, Patrick. Beyond Shame: Reclaiming the Abandoned History of Radical Gay Sexuality. Boston: Beacon Press, 2004.
FAG RAG did a lot of good work in getting gay men to think about basics of identity and interpersonal relationships between gay men. It also went off the deep end sometimes, with talk of various grotesque perversions as acts of revolution. Do you know if FAG RAG is available online? I have put many but not yet all of the materials of Homosexuals Intransigent! online at the Mr. Gay Pride website, and would like to be able to direct people, with cautions, to an online archive of FAG RAG’s materials as well, but don’t find one in brief checking via Google. Please advise. Cheers.
