A Few Good Gays - Cati Connell - Bog

"Was the bargain for equality worth it? In a daring exploration of this timely question, A Few Good Gays turns to recent gender and sexual changes in the military to show that a right won is not a right secured. In documenting the pitfalls of assimilation, Cati Connell pushes us to radically reimagine actual queer freedom."--Brandon Andrew Robinson, author of Coming Out to the Streets: LGBTQ Youth Experiencing Homelessness "This book is a timely, critical contribution to the study of homonormativity and assimilation in the military and, more broadly, in American society. Connell poses the right questions about the experiences of LGBTQ people in the military during these times of policy change."--Amy L. Stone, author of Queer Carnival: Festivals and Mardi Gras in the South "This is an outstanding book, one of the most truly intersectional pieces of sociology I have read in some time."--Jonathan Simon, Lance Robbins Professor of Criminal Justice Law, University of California, Berkeley
