Hello All,
So one of my favorite readings this semester was Chauncey's "Gay New York," because of its ability to resurrect the city at that time. As a New Yorker myself, it was really fun to go back in time and imagine what NYC used to be, and how those elements linger today. I came across this article that focused specifically on the queer history of Brooklyn, and there's an interesting little video embedded as well.

Enjoy!
