Go Fight Your Own Damn War: US Gay History 1937-1978

This week, the US military's anti-gay methods always backfire, a researcher wants a do-over, lead paint poisoned papaws are too emboldened, Alfred Kinsey and Joe Exotic appear in the same sentence, and the government loves to watch. Thank you for your patience with some uneven audio this week! Content warnings: comparisons between homosexuality and incest/rape, brief recap of topics covered in previous episodes, PTSD, military service, mention of sexual assault, forced psychiatric confinement, involuntary outing, burning death, mistreatment of remains, homophobia, graphic discussion of lobotomies, medical torture, sexual solicitation and murder of children (brief and not graphic), graphic and painful murder of gay man by cops, riots/uprisings, police brutality.
