Symposium on Gays and the Left (Part II)

Introduction

Joanne Landy and Thomas Harrison

 

IN THE LAST ISSUE OF New Politics, we published Part I of a symposium on gays and the left, with contributions by Bettina Aptheker, John D'Emilio, Martin Duberman, Jeffrey Escoffier, and David McReynolds, and a piece by Christopher Phelps on a 1952 document of the Socialist Party youth that urged the SP to support the decriminalization of same-sex activity. Below is Part II of the symposium, with articles by Peter Drucker, Marcia Gallo, Thomas Harrison, Doug Ireland, and Sherry Wolf. We invite responses from our readers.
