Curing Queers with Tommy Dickinson

Curing Queers with Tommy Dickinson26 okt 202554 min

This week, I chat with Tommy Dickinson, author of Curing Queers: Mental Nurses and their Patients, 1935-74. The book includes oral histories of both nurses who administered--and the individuals who received--treatments designed to "cure" homosexuality.

Find Tommy's book here.

Special shoutout to Gay's The Word, the oldest LGBTQ bookstore in the UK, where I first encountered Tommy's book!
