LGBTQ+ rights / by Micah L. Issitt.

Issitt, Micah L., (author.).

Summary:

Introduces readers to LGBTQ+ concepts and to the prominent challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in the United States. Traces the evolution of thought about sexual and gender identity beginning with colonial times, often tracing the history of laws regarding sex and gender back to ancient civilizations. Famous controversial figures, events, and court cases are covered, and the changes brought about in the realm of public opinion are discussed as the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals were expanded or curtailed. From early ant-sodomy laws to the Stonewall riots to transgender women in sports, this new volume delves into the key moments that have brought the legal status of LGBTQ+ Americans to where it is today.
