Sexuality and Socialism: History, Politics, and Theory of LGBT Liberation

"Sexuality and Socialism is the most intelligent and enlightened discussion on sexuality to come from the Left in a long time. No other work that comes to my mind explains the history of sexuality and sexual repression in the United States as comprehensively and compellingly."--Ron Jacobs, Dissident Voice The movement for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights has greatly expanded sexual freedom, but many challenges confront the struggle for equality. Sexuality and Socialism offers a Marxist analysis that links today’s struggles for equal rights to a future based on genuine liberation. Sherry Wolf is on the editorial board of the International Socialist Review. She has written for publications including MRZine and CounterPunch and has spoken across the country on the struggle for gay and lesbian liberation.
