WE ARE EVERYWHERE

Leighton Brown Matthew Riemer

Protest, Power, and Pride in the History of Queer Liberation

A rich photographic history of the queer liberation movement from the massively popular Instagram @lgbt_history, released in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.
Through the lens of pride, protest, and progress, We Are Everywhere is a visual record and celebration of LGBTQ+ identity, life, modern history, and the queer liberation movement. Tracing queer history from the early 20th century before the 1969 Stonewall riots to today, this beautifully packaged book contains thousands of photos and pieces of ephemera with detailed captions that tell the story of the fight for LGBTQ+ civil rights. The vintage and contemporary images cover every aspect of queer life and liberation, including pride marches and protests, the AIDS crisis, queer family life, personal snapshots from notable and regular people, drag queens, celebrations, reactions to important legal decisions, marriage equality, and more.

LEIGHTON BROWN and MATTHEW RIEMER are an engaged couple based in Washington, DC, who are both attorneys and amateur LGBT historians. Together, they run the hugely popular @lgbt_history Instagram account.
