And They Were Wonderful Teachers
Focusing on Florida's purge of gay and lesbian teachers from 1956 to 1965, this study explores how the Florida Legislative Investigation Committee, known as Johns Committee, investigated and discharged dozens of teachers on the basis of sexuality. It details how teachers are targeted, interrogated, and stripped of their professional credentials.
