Are you a guy or a girl?" Feinberg uncovers a history of the transgender experience from stories of ancient Greece to present day transgender parents, from accounts of gender oppression to gender expression; the reader is left with the realization that although history is read in terms of English pronouns "he" and "she", people have always crossed cultural boundaries of gender. -The Diversity Center

From figuring out that one isn't straight, to coming out to family and friends, to finding community, Free Your Mind is the book for queer youth and allies, as invaluable a guide today as when it was first published. -The Diversity Center

This definitive biography takes us back to the time when the love that dare not speak its name was coming out of the closet, with Harvey Milk on track to become its leading spokesperson. Shilts takes us from Milk's childhood to assassination and beyond, objectively, without idolization, humanizing the man whose political will (yes, he left a political will) ended, "You gotta give them hope." -The Diversity Center
