Wow, I was checking out that course At Yale just yesterday. It looks fantastic. Hey, would you mind sticking up our poster around the place? http://wplgbt.tripod.com/Wikipedianeedsyou.doc (you have to directly cut and paste the url, or it won't let you download it). Also, do you know of any LGBT history textbooks? I'm drawing a blank through Google. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 08:42, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- Many thanks for your welcome! I have just downloaded the poster and will happily place it around campus. As far as a book to use as a textbook, I would suggest, for its encompassing nature, Queer Cultures, edited by Deborah Carlin and Jennifer DiGrazia (Prentice Hall, 2003). Or else, A Desired Past: A Short History of Same-Sex Love in America, by Leila J.
