The increasing participation of lesbians and gay men in municipal politics is a product of the convergence of several processes: the creation of a movement among individuals, most of whom previously accepted collective invisibility; the mobilization of political resources by members of the community; and the opening of opportunities for participation by local political regimes. Here, the author examines how gay and lesbian community-building and political-mobilization processes in four New York cities (Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse) meshed with opportunities provided by local political regimes to encourage a greater voice for lesbians and gay men in municipal politics
