This collection includes materials related to individuals and organizations that detail the development of LGBT issues and policies in New Mexico. The collection contains 6 series, with the publication series divided into 2 subseries for southwestern regional publications and the national publication. Although organizations and individuals are inseparable and overlap, the specific focus of the documents determined where to place the materials.
Series 1: Oral Histories. The folders contain oral histories with LGBT community members and activists from New Mexico. Topics covered include New Mexico LGBT history, political organizing, gender nonconforming and trans-identified subjects, same-sex marriage, AIDS and coming out in the 1980s. The description notes in the finding aid identify the available format for the interview and the interviewer.
Series 2: Identified People. The folders contain documents specific to an individual.
Series 3: Organizations. These folders contain documents specific to an organization.
