About the Book

Lambda Legal, the pioneering non-profit legal organization, is opening its archives for the first time to create a book commemorating their 50th anniversary.

The most important, 'game-changing' legal cases for the civil rights of the LGBTQ community are presented here alongside a collection of curated archival material and historical images, chronicling the history and vital mission of the organization to advocate for the lives of LGBTQ people and people living with HIV.

Through lively, detailed text and fascinating historical and contemporary images, including rarely seen and never-published images from the Lambda Legal's photo archive, dating back 50 years, to the beginning of the organization's history, this is the first book to celebrate and commemorate the societal impact of Lambda Legal's landmark strides for the civil rights of the LGBTQ community.

Founded four years after the Stonewall Rebellion in New York City in 1973, Lambda Legal is the oldest legal organization in the USA dedicated to achieving full equality for lesbian and gay people. With unprecedented success, this trailblazing national civil-rights group has offices in six locations around the country and continues to improve lives for a diverse community of LGBTQ people, who, fifty years ago, were penalized or barely recognized under the law.

About the Author :

Ellen Ann Andersenis an associate professor of political science and gender, sexuality, and women's studies at the University of Vermont.

Roxane Gay is a bestselling writer, professor, and social commentator.



Review :

‘We’ll continue to fight the good fight over the next four years and beyond – perhaps harder than ever – and Lambda Legal’s Making the Case for Equality, a detailed half-century history of our hard-won judicial victories, is a solid reminder of how far we’ve come in the war for LGBTQ+ rights.’ – Washington Blade

‘A new book tracks the major legal milestones for LGBTQ+ rights.’ – LAist

‘Opens Lambda Legal’s archive, celebrating half a century of advocacy.’ – GLAAD
