lgbt stories from red states
The author, a queer woman and former suit-and-tie wearing Mormon missionary, takes a cross-country road-trip stretching from Provo, Utah, to the Rio Grande Valley to the Bible Belt to the Deep South to seek out LGBT culture in conservative "Red States," including drag shows, political rallies, and hubs of queer life across the heartland, introducing LGBT people working for change, from the first openly transgender mayor in Texas history to the manager of the only queer night club in Bloomington, Indiana, and many more, capturing profound cultural shifts underway in unexpected places.
