Another Side Of Pride: The Hidden Gay History of New York's East Village
< Previous Photo | Next Photo >
Back to gallery | See all galleries
New York's East Village has more gay history packed into its seedy and narrow streets than all of Greenwich Village and Chelsea combined. Sadly, as a result of the AIDS crisis, the almost complete disappearance of gay and straight political activism and the young gay disdain for history, the gay landmarks of the East Village have mostly disappeared, both physically and in our memories. New York lovingly preserves many of its historical landmarks, but gay landmarks are turned into banks and dog runs. Even Stonewall was only just recently saved from demolition. My friend, Sasha, however, stands ready to learn. (Editor's Note: If you missed the introduction to this gallery by Richard Rothstein, find out more about what you're looking at here.)
