Gender and Sexuality

Stephen O. Murray and Keelung Hong Special Collections seeks to collect, preserve, and make accessible material documenting social and political changes on gender and sexual identity.

Gender and sexuality related material can be found within several umbrella collections. Such as Radicalism, Russel B. Nye Popular Culture, José F. Treviño Chicanx/Latinx Activism, and our Zine collection. Currently, two main umbrella collections have been created that focus specifically on gender and sexuality, the Changing Men collection and LGBTQ+ collection.
