Not in MY Gayborhood: Dupont Circle and the Rise of the Vicarious Citizen. Author Talk
Professor Theo Greene of Bowdoin College discusses his new book "Not in MY Gayborhood: Gay Neighborhoods and the Rise of the Vicarious Citizen."
A book about LGBTQ neighbors of Dupont Circle?!?
In celebration of LGBTQ History Month, Rainbow History Project will host an author talk with Professor Theo Greene, Ph.D., Chair of the Sociology Department of Bowdoin College.
Dr. Greene's latest book project, "Not in MY Gayborhood: Gay Neighborhoods and the Rise of the Vicarious Citizen," explores the persistence of iconic gay neighborhoods in Washington, DC, through acts of ephemeral placemaking by nonresidents (vicarious citizens). It is based on several years of extensive field research in Washington and interviews with LGBTQ residents and visitors of Dupont Circle.
Dr. Greene will present an overview of his book in dialog with RHP's Director of Archiving, Vincent Slatt, and questions from the audience.

A video by Jamie Walters, VEE Productions, 1988. This compilation of performance videos and interview clips, by and about poet Chasen Gaver, is an interesting and offbeat look at the way one man gets his artistic and social messages across. Using a combination of Motown and punk rock, everyday props and precisely orchestrated delivery, Chasen has fun (often biting fun) with humankind's foibles ...

    2:51 "Chris" was in MEN magazine at least once just before this video was made. I used to buy it in my early 20's. I am guessing they have all passed on... So much has changed for the better. I was in the SF area then and at 18, 19, 20, 21 how survived and did not get this I don't know. Tested many times back then and many times later, still negative at 59. Have a lover for 38 years now. So many good people gone...

    I just don't understand how this far into the epidemic people were still getting infected! By 1983 when I was a 17 year old gay man my doctor was telling me what not to do. It was all over the news.... why did this continue? Did people think it would not happen to them?? I am a versatile male, have been since I was 19 in 1984 in Oakland, CA, but certain things need covered when doing certain things! I would have never thought not "suiting up" and asking my partner too as well! Oh a happy note, there sure are very handsome bearded men in this video!

    I will just never understand how when this disease has been in the news heavily since 1983/1984 that people continued to have unsafe sex with others and get infected into the 1990's! I will never understand that! When I was 17 in 1983 in San Leandro, CA my doctor was telling me then what was OK and what not to do, thank goodness I listened to him! Never would I have sex with someone I did not know! We are all different and for that I am also thankful!

I rewatched it tonight for the first time since and thought I had a handle on things until I got to the credits and in the local news preview there is breaking news of the Chernobyl disaster and now I am like ugh. The 80s were a depressing time!!! Lol.

    People were terrified of it especially at the beginning. I remember Joan Rivers said that when she was out at a restaurant or a bar - she would only order a drink out of a can or bottle - not a glass that needed to be re-washed. And she's so gay friendly.

    I don't care who you are. If there were only sodomites in this world, the human race would cease to exist. Fast forward 40 years. No one can tell you what a woman is. This is today's reality. Suffragettes wanted the vote, today's woman is fighting for rights of their basic sex. They died because of men and their sexual deviancy. I don't give a shit about any comments.

      They didn't start out with much support. Vincent had to close down his management company because of others ignorance wasting his time, and there was a lot of fear when he tried to get Troy into preschool. This doco changed alot of misconceptions in the public arena at the time... I grew up in hospital with Troy, and I saw how they were treated in the early days. The 2nd doco A Kid Called Troy was incredible... It was the public efforts of the Lovegrove family which calmed the storms of fear and ignorance, and opened the doors for love and understanding. Such a different scenario today...
