Since the 1960s, San Francisco has been America's capital of sexual libertinism and a potent symbol in its culture wars. In this talk, author Dr. Josh Sides explains how this happened, unearthing long-forgotten stories of the city's sexual revolutionaries, as well as the legions of longtime San Franciscans who tried to protect their vision of a moral metropolis, and their vision of "proper" SF neighborhoods. In partnership with the GLBT Historical Society.
From July through November, lectures are held on Thursday evenings at 6:00 p.m., with doors opening at 5:30 PM.
Individual tickets are generally $10 for Heritage members and students (with ID) and $15 for the general public. Series passes (all five lectures) are $40 for members/students and $60 for the public.
