A powerful collection of essays chronicling lesbian and queer life, activism, and history.For over fifty years, Joan Nestle has boldly chronicled lesbian and queer life with heart and moral suasion. A Sturdy Yes of a People gathers Nestle's most influential writings into a single volume, presenting her persistent involvement in liberation movements, LGBTQ+ histories, erotic writing, and archives that document gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer lives. Embedded in tales of lesbian desire are Nestle's concerns with the power of class and race in America to exile bodies.A bold and original thinker, deeply connected with her communities, Nestle dazzles as a powerful writer and theorist. This collection provides a vibrant context for contemporary readers to engage with Joan Nestle's historically significant and dynamic work. It is perfect for those interested in LGBTQ+ studies, feminist theory, and social justice.
