Uses the state of Oklahoma as a case study for how US conservatives have attempted to unqueer America since the 1950’s.
By exploring the scandal-filled lives of four Oklahomans, this book demonstrates how unqueering operates in a conservative American context. Carol Mason weaves a story about how homogenizing, antigay ideas evolve from generation to generation so that they achieve particular economic, imperial, racial, and gendered goals. Using engaging and accessible commentary on antigay crusaders (Sally Kern and Anita Bryant) and two queer teachers dismissed from their positions (Billy James Hargis and Bruce Goff), Mason illustrates how the lives of these figures represent paradigmatic moments in conservative confrontations with queers and help us to understand the conflation of terrorism with homosexuality, which dates back to the McCarthy era.
Carol Mason is Professor of Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of Kentucky. She is the author of Killing for Life: The Apocalyptic Narrative of Pro-Life Politics and Reading Appalachia from Left to Right: Conservatives and the 1974 Kanawha County Textbook Controversy.
