Radically Gay:  Gay Liberation in the Words of Its FounderRadically Gay : Gay Liberation in the Words of Its Founder by Harry Hay, Will Roscoe (Editor)

Radically Gay:  Gay Liberation in the Words of Its Founder

Harry Hay is the acknowledged father (or mother, as he might prefer) of the modern gay liberation movement. As a Communist Party organizer and historian who founded the Mattachine Society in 1949, Hay began turning out essays, position papers, critical studies, and manifestos concerning what it means to be gay in the world. Radically Gay is a collection of those writings, edited by historian Will Rosco, and its breadth and depth is amazing. Radically Gay is an important contribution to gay history and letters; it tells us not only where we have been, but, more importantly, where we might be going.

This is the first collection of the words and speeches of the founder of the Mattachine Society and the modern gay movement. Harry Hay lives in Los Angeles and remains an outspoken activist. Radically Gay is essential reading for anyone trying to understand what it means to be gay, bisexual, transgender or straight. --  Urvashi Vaid

The Denver Radical Faerie Tribe

The Denver Radical Faerie Tribe has been in existence for about four years. It is a fast-growing circle of energetic earth-centered Gay men who meet for community, celebrating the solstices, equinoxes and ancient holidays of the sun and the moon. Gatherings are usually on Full Moons around Denver.

 

Euro-Faeries

The EuroFaeries is a movement of gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans-gendered people and their supporters, who believe that all gay people have a unique identity and cultural heritage within humanity. The movement strives to help people discover that identity and heritage by offering a safe space and diverse opportunities for individual, creative and spiritual growth.

   

Faerie Camp Destiny

Faerie Camp Destiny is a Vermont non-profit corporation, and has established permanent, sustainable Faerie Sanctuary and Community in Grafton, Vermont. Seeded with the Faerie money, propelled by nurture, persistence, generosity and faith, the vision is now reality. Situated near Chester, Vermont, with easy access, this "magickly delicious" 150-acre parcel of richly reforested farmland with meandering stone walls, a brook and panoramic views, has been christened the next Destiny.

Gay Spirit Visions

Gay Spirit Visions started as an outgrowth from a series of Radical Faerie gatherings (which was the first hint of a movement among gay men to consider what masculinity means to us) that happened at Running Water farm near Asheville, North Carolina in the late '70s and 80s.

Hip Faeries

HipFaerie is a space for gay, lesbian, and bisexual youth who have roots in modern hip culture - "queer hippies" as it were. This safe space was created to bring together hip brothers and sisters the world over, to facilitate meeting, communication, and a sharing of ideas and philosophies. HipFaerie is a place in which we can find and explore our commonalities and differences.

 

Houston Faerie Circle

The Houston Faerie Circle is an unstructured group of queer men and their friends who gather to explore spirituality from a distinctly queer and nontraditional point of view. Our nontraditional sexuality informs our spirituality. Our experiences as queer men give us a unique point of view. Our sexuality is a powerful spiritual gift. As queer men we have special contributions to make to society, we have special roles within our culture, we lead, we create, we enrich the world.

 

IDALAND- Queer Artist Community

A queer artists community, IDA is located in Middle Tennessee a little over an hour east of Nashville.  Our purpose is to enrich our country-living skills, nurture our artistic endeavors, and to seek a harmonious and productive alternative way of living outside the mainstream.

 

Kawashaway Sanctuary

The mission of Kawashaway Sanctuary is to provide for the empowerment and fellowship of queer folk (who may identify as bi, butch, dyke, fag, femme, fruit, gay, homo, lesbian, nellie, nancy, queen, queer, transgender, or transvestite) and their friends, as a disenfranchised part of our community. Our vision is to preserve the Sanctuary land on Artlip Lake in as natural a state as possible to allow for it to be a special, safe place apart-from yet connected-to the wider world, a place of emotional and spiritual well-being for loving, healing, playing, and working in cooperation with each other as a community of kindred fae souls, while attempting to respect the sanctity and peace of all present.

 

RFD
RFD is the only nationally distributed magazine that focuses on rural gay men and related areas of human growth and consciousness.

The scope of RFD includes articles on alternative lifestyles, homesteading, politics, gardening, cooking, contact letters, poetry, fiction, prisoner concerns, men's arts, health, photography, and book reviews.

RFD explores the identity of gay men, their history and contributions. Being a reader-written journal, it is an open forum for new ideas, radical views and controversial issues.

With an active, responsive circulation of about 3,000, RFD reaches a particularly independent, intelligent, and conscious segment of the gay male population.

The philosophy of the journal is one which expounds a low-energy-consuming lifestyle and voluntary simplicity. RFD readers maintain a high interest in alternative products, publications, services and real estate.

In 1994 RFD entered its 20th year of publication. Since 1988 it has been published by the Short Mountain Collective in rural Tennessee.

Zuni Mountain Sanctuary

Encouraging all people to live in love, harmony, and respect for each other and the Earth which sustains us all, we have formed Zuni Mountain Sanctuary.  We are a gender-inclusive Radical Faerie Sanctuary on 315 acres in a four season mountain climate.  Our community works to create an earth-oriented rural permaculture which supports our individual and collective spiritual and creative growth.

Zuni Mountain Sanctuary began in the early part of 1996, when several earth-centered folk moved onto this land and started building community.  The people living here have agreed to act as stewards of the land, meaning we intend to restore and maintain Mother Earth's natural beauty.  We celebrate lunar, solar, and seasonal changes as a way to maintain connection with the earth.  We invite others to participate in the work and play we call Stewardship.
