Description
The best queer history book you'll read this year.
LONGLISTED FOR THE BREAD & ROSES AWARD
Shoulder to Shoulder is a love letter to the LGBTQ+ pioneers of solidarity and coalition. Offering a new global look at forgotten moments when those from marginalised backgrounds stood shoulder to shoulder to build a better future for all.
Through astounding research and fascinating storytelling, author and journalist Jake Hall takes us into the world of these trailblazers, bringing their tales to life and exploring both the inexplicable joys and brutal realities in their fights for justice.
Spanning movements from the Black Panthers’ coalition with the Gay Liberation Front in the US to queer solidarity groups in Argentina, Spain, France, and Germany; from trans fights for abortion rights to the Pride support for miners’ strikes in the UK, Shoulder to Shoulder is for anyone who loved Bad Gays, Natives, or Poverty Safari and is hungry for a fresh perspective on queer history.
