Thesis (Ed.D.)--Harvard University, 2004.

Between 1966 and 1975 North American youth activists established over 35 school- and community-based gay liberation youth groups. This study focuses on three groundbreaking New York City groups---Gay Youth (GY), Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.), and the Gay International Youth Society of George Washington High School (GWHS)---from the advent of gay liberation in NYC in 1969 to just after the dissolution of gay liberation and the rise of identity politics by 1975. These three groups are forerunners of more than two thousand present-day high school Gay-Straight Alliances and community-based programs. They were unique for their early dates of origin, youth activism and visibility, the range of identities (gender, sexual, racial, and ethnic), the extent of their activities (including publication, outreach, activism, organization) and the influences of gay liberation, the anti-war movement, feminism, Black liberation, Youth Liberation, high school rights movements, and the New Left.

520 $a Between 1966 and 1975 North American youth activists established over 35 school- and community-based gay liberation youth groups. This study focuses on three groundbreaking New York City groups---Gay Youth (GY), Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.), and the Gay International Youth Society of George Washington High School (GWHS)---from the advent of gay liberation in NYC in 1969 to just after the dissolution of gay liberation and the rise of identity politics by 1975. These three groups are forerunners of more than two thousand present-day high school Gay-Straight Alliances and community-based programs. They were unique for their early dates of origin, youth activism and visibility, the range of identities (gender, sexual, racial, and ethnic), the extent of their activities (including publication, outreach, activism, organization) and the influences of gay liberation, the anti-war movement, feminism, Black liberation, Youth Liberation, high school rights movements, and the New Left.
520 $a Gay Youth (GY) provided a social and political outlet for those under twenty-one. Established in 1970, it was initially one of many New York Gay Liberation Front cells. Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.) sheltered "throw-away" homeless street youth, espoused free gender expression, an end to prison injustice, and the creation of an inclusive community that rejected binding definitions of gender and sexual identity. The Gay International Youth Society of George Washington High School was a gay-straight club established in December, 1972, with support from the Gay Activists Alliance. Surprisingly, it was formed seventeen years before the first officially recognized Gay-Straight Alliance.
520 $a I investigate two key questions: (1) How did gay liberation (informed by other Movement struggles) catalyze young gay liberation activists? (2) Why did youth form and join groups distinct from adult homophile and gay liberation organizations and what did they derive from the experience? I ask how sexual ideology shaped membership criteria, patterns of organization, decision-making, the role of participants, and efforts to effect social change. These questions are also relevant to present-day educators and queer youth activists. As gay liberation ceded ground to the politics of mainstream assimilation, revolutionary gay liberation youth groups were gradually overshadowed by adult-led social service programs.
