Notes and Reading: * Most of the specific history of the White Horse was learned from "Sanctuary: the Inside Story of the Nation\'s Second Oldest Gay Bar" by David Olson, reprinted in its entirety on the White Horse\'s website. * "Gayola: Police Professionalization and the Politics of San Francisco\'s Gay Bars, 1950-1968," by Christopher Agee. * June Thomas\' series on the past, present, and future of the gay bar from Slate a few years back. * Various articles written on the occasion of the White Horse\'s 80th anniversary, including this one from SFGATE.Com * Michael Bronski\'s A Queer History of the United States. * Radically Gay, a collection of Harry Hay\'s writing. * Incidentally, I watched this interview with Harry Hay from 1996 about gay life in SF in the 30\'s multiple times because it\'s amazing.
