The Castro - New Yorker Magazine

[Marlene Bloch]

The July 21, 1986 issue of The New Yorker includes an excellent article
(part 1 of 2) by Frances FitzGerald on the development, politically
and socially, of San Francisco as a gay center, and on the growth of
the gay liberation movement. It's a very well-written, in-depth
article that (so far) includes commentary on the Gay Freedom Day Parade of
1978; the Advocate; Armistead Maupin; Harvey Milk/Dan White/twinkie
defense; and many other topics.

If you're interested in gay culture, California politics,
miscarriages of justice, or excellent writing, read this article.
