Have pride in history. A rich and sweeping photographic history of
the Queer Liberation Movement, from the creators and curators of the
massively popular Instagram account LGBT History. “If you think
the fight for justice and equality only began in the streets outside
Stonewall, with brave patrons of a bar fighting back, you need to
read We Are Everywhere right now.”—Anderson Cooper Through the
lenses of protest, power, and pride, We Are Everywhere is an essential
and empowering introduction to the history of the fight for queer
liberation. Combining exhaustively researched narrative with
meticulously curated photographs, the book traces queer activism from
its roots in late-nineteenth-century Europe—long before the pivotal
Stonewall Riots of 1969—to the gender warriors leading the charge
today. Featuring more than 300 images from more than seventy
photographers and twenty archives, this inclusive and intersectional
book enables us to truly see queer history unlike anything before,
with glimpses of activism in the decades preceding and following
Stonewall, family life, marches, protests, celebrations, mourning, and
Pride. By challenging many of the assumptions that dominate mainstream
LGBTQ+ history, We Are Everywhere shows readers how they can—and
must—honor the queer past in order to shape our liberated future.
