Book Description
This book, by W. Dorr Legg, founder of ONE Institute, with the help of other longtime ONE leaders David Cameron and Walter L. Williams, gives a thorough look at this pioneering gay rights group that began in Los Angeles in 1952. ONE started by publishing America's first homosexual magazine, and then branched out into offering America's first classes in what is now called Gay and Lesbian Studies, and published ONE Institute Quarterly of Homophile Studies (America's first academic journal in Gay and Lesbian Studies). In 1954 ONE sued the U.S. Post Office for refusing to distribute ONE magazine through the mails, which in 1958 resulted in the first U.S. Supreme Court ruling in favor of gay rights.
