Reseña del libro "Harvey Milk: The biography of America's first gay politician, his pride, hope and LGBTQ legacy (en Inglés)"
Delve into the captivating life of Harvey Bernard Milk, an American political trailblazer born on May 22, 1930, who defied societal norms as the first openly gay man elected to public office in California. Hailing from New York, Milk grappled with his homosexuality during his formative years, navigating a path marked by secrecy and discretion. The transformative influence of the 1960s counterculture prompted him to reevaluate his conservative beliefs, paving the way for a remarkable journey.In 1972, Milk made San Francisco his home, opening a camera store in the heart of the burgeoning LGBTQ+ haven in the Castro district. Undeterred by resistance from the established gay political circles, he launched a spirited campaign for city supervisor in 1973, earning the moniker "Mayor of Castro Street." Despite initial setbacks, Milk's resilience and charisma propelled him to political prominence.Elected as city supervisor in 1977, Milk became a staunch advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, spearheading groundbreaking anti-discrimination legislation. Tragically, his life was cut short on November 27, 1978, when he and Mayor George Moscone were assassinated. Milk's legacy persists as an enduring symbol of courage, activism, and the ongoing fight for equality. This biography explores the multifaceted journey of a visionary leader, celebrating Milk's indomitable spirit and his pivotal role in shaping LGBTQ+ history.
