#Chautauqua, the famous summer arts and philosophy resort in western NY, founded as a Bible camp, was also apparently “crawling with queers” in the early 1950s. Here’s Michael Rumaker‘s description of Chautauqua in 1951, when he was 18. Yes, he lost his “gay virginity” (his words) at Chautauqua that summer. Has anyone written a queer history of Chautauqua? #queerhistory #histodons #LGBTQ
