He learned at an early age the price one paid for being different. Bullied and harassed, Dale started seeking an escape even before puberty revealed just how dangerous his predicament was. By fifteen, taunts had turned into blows, and Dale lived under a near-constant threat of assault.</p><p>But there was hope. The whiff of revolution was everywhere. Black Power, free love, androgyny, LSD, and Haight Ashbury were all the rage. Freaks like Andy Warhol, Timothy Leary, Little Richard, and Janis Joplin were in; stuffed shirts like Billy Graham, Liberace, and Lawrence Welk were out. It was the perfect time to come out.</p><p>Taking it all in, Mitchell embraced Sixties-style rebelliousness with a vengeful vigor. No outrage was too petty or extreme. From bullied teenager to gay barfly to hippie faggot freak to drug-addicted speed junkie, he kept at it, trying to secure an escape from his past. Not until he participated in the Stonewall riots did he finally glimpse something previously unimaginablea rebellion by and for gay people.</p><p>Hippie Faggot Freak: The Making of a Gay Liberationist is the frank, raw, and sometimes harrowing account of a young mans struggle against seemingly insurmountable odds. New was the idea of living as an out, proud, in-your-face gay man. Dales story is the story of one who was among the first.</p><p>Thoroughly engaging, the account is also sometimes shocking. Dales journey was improvisedtraveling a path without blueprints or roadmaps, where there was only a thicket of hatred and lies. As often as not, it led to dead ends. Yet he emerged as something never before seen: a "gay liberationist." Ultimately, Hippie Faggot Freak is a story of transcendenceof bravery, perseverance, resilience, and, most importantly of all, an unquenchable thirst for freedom.</p><p>Praise for Hippie Faggot Freak</p><p>"Hear ye, hear ye, youth of today! And you of any age! Read Dale Mitchells lively tale of "gumption," the resistant spirit it took for a gay man born in 1949 to survive and finally thrive in an America determined to kill his sense of self-worth. Thanks, Dale for this deeply moving memoir."<br />Jonathan Ned Katz, author, Love Stories: Sex Between Men Before Homosexuality.</p><p>"Mitchells memoir is a tour de force. Read it! And celebrate the courage and resilience of one gay man whose story is the pulse beat of a generation."<br />Bettina Aptheker, Distinguished Professor Emerita, Feminist Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz</p><p>"Dale Mitchells Hippie Faggot Freak is a memoir of a queer childhood that vibrantly strikes every terrifying, confusing, and deeply gratifying nuance of what it meant to be a gay boy growing up in the world before Stonewall...Hippie Faggot Freak captures the exhilarating touch, smell and feel of freedom and details the arduous, frequently bewildering journey to finding it."<br />Michael Bronski, Professor of the Practice in Activism and Media Studies of Women, Gender and Sexuality, Harvard University</p>...9781955826501_Rattling Good Yarns Presslibro_electonico_323c2afb-4d84-3af9-b2a8-acdc7473f875_9781955826501;9781955826501_9781955826501Dale MitchellInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/draft2digital_ipp-epub-a1c00bf0-8a36-4327-a11f-68d5d3536fd0.epub2023-10-03T00:00:00+00:00Rattling Good Yarns Press
