Seeking a Queerer Queer Career
Margot Canaday's Queer Career is an important book that will no doubt inspire new works and threads for scholars to pursue. It's also a massive undertaking. With it, Canaday seeks to reinvigorate the field of LGBTQ history with that of capitalism and work. She follows many of the inclinations long since in the field, including several highlighted in John D'Emilio's seminal work, “Capitalism and Gay Identity,” originally published in 1983 but deli…

Welcome to Fairyland: Queer Miami before 1940
Poised on the edge of the United States and at the center of a wider Caribbean world, today’s Miami is marketed as an international tourist hub that embraces gender and sexual difference. As Julio Capó Jr. shows in this fascinating history, Miami’s transnational connections reveal that the city has been a queer borderland for over a century. In chronicling Miami’s queer past from its 1896 founding through 1940, Capó shows the multifaceted ways ge…
Sexual Connections
Miami is a relatively "new" urban space that has historically been shaped by the Caribbean. By the 1920s, the tentacles of US imperialism ensured that racialized sex tourism in Cuba and the Bahamas-particularly the former-became central to Miami's own success. This essay reveals how Miami's entrenched relationship to the Caribbean provides a necessary transnational view of Prohibition-era culture and politics and the uneasy urban battles that ens…
Queers and the City
Colloquy: Queering America and the World
Mark Bradley: Queer isn’t a word you see much in the pages of Diplomatic History or the program for SHAFR’s annual conference. Indeed, a quick lexical check of article titles since the journal began publication in 1977 for “gay,” “homosexual,” “lesbian,” “transgender,” and “queer” brings up absolutely nothing (bracketing the single title reference to the Enola Gay ). You may not be surprised. You should be. Queer history and queer studies occupy …
