This is the place where we gather our recommendations for books, articles and other media.

In future we would be happy to offer a kind of a virtual media archive with an accent on GLBT-related literature and art.

Our recommendations so far:»

» "Sixteen Propositions" by Michael Denneny

An analysis of the situation (1981) and a call for the cultural and political progress of  gay people. 

»  "The Jewish State" by Theodor Herzl 

 This book is regarded as one of the fundaments of the early jewish self-determination movement. The situation of the jewish people at the end of the 19th century was very similar to those of the gay people: they were a people without a territory, spread over the earth and were subject of worst discrimination. We openly admit that we are inspired by ideas of Theodor Herzl in a high degree, indeed many of his statements can be copied 1:1 to describe the current situation of the gay community. We should learn from the jewish people how to succeed with our notion of a gay and lesbian state.

» "Colonies & Super-Families" by Jeff Koslik

This publication describes a different vision of the gay community - as a part of existing nations, fully integrated into society but still unique in its cultural contribution. An interesting approach to the "queer identity" and the ways to increase the output of the gay culture.

» "Nobody Gets Out of Here Alive" by Steve Jackson

An essay about Patrick Gourley, an US-american gay activist.
