Abstract
We will explore the history of LGBTQ+ Idahoans, expanding beyond the Boys of Boise (a 1955-57 McCarthy-era investigation into an alleged “homosexual underground” in Boise) to illuminate the everyday lives, communities, successes, and accomplishments of LGBTQ+ Idahoans, with attention to diverse identities and experiences. We will investigate surprising opportunities for LGBTQ+ life in rural Idaho, and then delve into the complex role religion has played in the lives of LGBTQ+ Idahoans.
