Sodomy Laws Retrospective (1 of 3) | A panel discussion that took place ten years after California's "sodomy laws" were repealed. Historian Alan Bérubé details California's history with anti-gay legislation, beginning with the state's first law against sodomy that was passed in 1850 and continuing through to the decriminalization of both sodomy and oral sex between consenting adults in private in 1976. Bérubé also discusses historical patterns relating to sex laws, and he contextualizes the debate between public versus private information. Activists Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon, cofounders of the Daughters of Bilitis, discuss the history of legislation criminalizing lesbian sex, and they detail the creation of the Council on Religion and the Homosexual in the 1960s. This material was digitized through the generous support of Larry Brenner and Angelo Figone. |
