ENTRY UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Persons and Groups Investigated

Alphabetical Subject List

F.B.I. Surveillance of Homosexuals, Alleged Homosexuals, Persons Associated with Homosexuality, Homosexual Groups, and Anti-Homosexual Groups and Persons

This list in construction is composed of the names of individuals and groups listed on the FBI's "Vault Index" website as having some association with homosexuality.^[1] This list also contains the names of individuals known or rumored to have been homosexual or bisexual, or who were associated somehow with homosexuality, who had encounters with the FBI. This list also contains the names of individuals associated with homosexuality and who supported, or were alleged to support left-wing or liberal causes. Future research will show if the FBI had files on all these persons and if those files referred to homosexuality.

This research is intended to provide wide-ranging evidence of the surveillance of homosexuals, rumored homosexuals, or homosexuality conducted by the FBI.

The designation "African American" is added under the names of some individuals to facilitate research on the FBI's spying on Black homosexual artists, writers, and activists, or those rumored to be homosexual.

Equi, Marie

Marie Diana Equi (born April 7, 1872, New Bedford, Massachusetts – died July 13, 1952, Portland, Oregon) was an American medical doctor and anarchist. FBI file.

FBI agents

Unnamed, thought to be homosexual). Cited in J. Edgar Hoover: The Man and the Secrets By Curt Gentry. Page 755.

FBI Files

Collection of FBI files on homophile groups, homosexual emancipation groups, and gay liberation groups, 1953-1970. Archive of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexua, & Transgender Community Center, New York City.

48. FBI FILES

Archive Number: 48

Date: 1953 to 1970

Size: 2 ½ feet

FBI Files 1953 to 1970

Provenance

This collection was donated by Martin Duberman. It came to us in 3 small boxes and 1 large box for a total of 2' 3". On speaking to Mr. Duberman on May 7, 1996 he told me the reason he was able to get his hands on this material. It seems that a Mr. Duncan Osborne , a writer for the Gay Press notified Mr. Duberman that he had sued the Government to obtain the rights to the files. The files had been released. Initially one person must sue the government to get the papers released. Mr. Duberman then paid $500- 600 dollars to get them copied and sent to him.

The first two boxes are arranged in groups of papers fixed together with metal fasteners, while the third box is all in folders. This box came to the Archive in loose form with each group / organization separated by a slip of paper marked with the organizations name.

Scope and Content

The general scope and content of this collection is extensive copies of papers collected on or about the various Mattachine Society, Gay Liberation Front, the North American Conference of Homophile Organizations, the National Planing Conference of Homophile Organizational the Western Conference of Homophile Organizations and their activities over the years 1953 - 1970's. The F.B.I. and The Justice Department kept track of members and events that they attended over this period of time. The records have been censored, sometimes in their entirety. A large amount of the information has been censored with a black marker.

The information on the particular organizations is at times wildly inaccurate. The collection, therefore, says more about the FBI than it does about the gay movement.

FBI informants

Unnamed, thought to be homosexual. Cited in J. Edgar Hoover: The Man and the Secrets By Curt Gentry. Page 412

Florida Legislative Committee ("The Johns Committee")^[4]

The Johns Committee begun interrogating suspected homosexuals among students and faculty on Florida campuses before the Legislature gave specific authorization for the investigation of homosexuals. In 1958, committee chairman Johns illegally sent a covert investigator to the University of Florida after his son, Jerome Johns, told his father that "effeminate instructors had perverted the curriculum."

In 1961, the Legislature directed the Johns Committee to broaden its investigations to include homosexuals and the "extent of [their] infiltration into agencies supported by state funds," particularly at state colleges and universities such as the University of Florida, Florida State University, and the University of South Florida. Having the power to subpoena witnesses, take sworn testimony, and employ secret informants, the committee spread terror among the closeted lesbian and gay population in state colleges, often using uniformed policemen to pull students and professors out of classes for interrogation.[5] All homosexual acts were crimes under Florida law at that time and remained so until the United States Supreme Court's Lawrence v. Texas ruling in 2003.[6] Admission of homosexuality constituted moral turpitude and was grounds for firing or expulsion from college. Research Request: FBI files, connection?

Hay and Geer participated in a milk strike in Los Angeles, where Hay was first exposed to radical gay activism in the person of "Clarabelle," a drag queen who held court in the Bunker Hill neighborhood, who hid Hay from police. Later that year, Hay and Geer performed in support of the San Francisco General Strike.
