Book excerpt: The Naked Tuck Shop is a unique record of a period long before ‘gaiety’ was legal in any form in the United Kingdom. This memoir of a 1950s grammar-school boy’s navigation through his emerging gayness, lifts the lid on his discovery of a vast clandestine world – that stretched from members of parliament to long distance lorry drivers. A chance meeting with two local artists while ‘cottaging’ provided the springboard to a Soho demimonde that featured Muriel Belcher’s Colony Room and a cast of characters that included Francis Bacon, Angus Wilson and Tom Driberg. While his friendship with Dudley, Bishop of Colchester, led to encounters with dodgy clerics and Margery Allingham, the crime writer queen. The author suggests that the ‘cottage’, long before later legal venues like gay pubs and discos arrived, was the only game in town for an underage provincial teenager. In a contemporary Britain starved of ‘public conveniences’ it is easy to forget their ubiquity in those times. The late Victorian ‘spend a penny’ brigade had decreed the building of these municipal marvels throughout the land, and fortunately for him the local worthy burghers had seen to it that Colchester was well endowed. Alongside his early adventures in ‘queer society’ Tim Hughes remembers with affection a group of talented school friends, and how some of them who were also friends of Dorothy, had their lives cut short by the arrival of the gay plague.

Download or read book We Ain t What We Ought To Be written by Stephen Tuck and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-17 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exciting revisionist history, Stephen Tuck traces the black freedom struggle in all its diversity, from the first years of freedom during the Civil War to President ObamaÕs inauguration. As it moves from popular culture to high politics, from the Deep South to New England, the West Coast, and abroad, Tuck weaves gripping stories of ordinary black peopleÑas well as celebrated figuresÑinto the sweep of racial protest and social change. The drama unfolds from an armed march of longshoremen in postÐCivil War Baltimore to Booker T. WashingtonÕs founding of Tuskegee Institute; from the race riots following Jack JohnsonÕs Òfight of the centuryÓ to Rosa ParksÕ refusal to move to the back of a Montgomery bus; and from the rise of hip hop to the journey of a black Louisiana grandmother to plead with the Tokyo directors of a multinational company to stop the dumping of toxic waste near her home. We AinÕt What We Ought To Be rejects the traditional narrative that identifies the Southern non-violent civil rights movement as the focal point of the black freedom struggle. Instead, it explores the dynamic relationships between those seeking new freedoms and those looking to preserve racial hierarchies, and between grassroots activists and national leaders. As Tuck shows, strategies were ultimately contingent on the power of activists to protest amidst shifting economic and political circumstances in the U.S. and abroad. This book captures an extraordinary journey that speaks to all AmericansÑboth past and future.
