Abstract Evelyn Hooker was the woman behind the research, advocacy, and allyship that led to the removal of the "homosexuality" diagnosis from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. She was also a poet, and an influential figure in the fight for gay rights. Pitman introduces readers to Hooker's work, and provides information about how readers can be an effective ally to LGBTQ+ people, people of color, people with disabilities, or anyone who's part of a marginalized community. -- adapted from back cover and Amazon info
