S1 E2“The Call”
Who is the Mattachine Foundation?
What do they want?
Harry Hay creates a discrete new gay organization under a pseudonym when he hears a call to action for his people. He and his recruits Rudi Gernreich, Dale Jennings, Chuck Rowland, & Bob Hull form the Mattachine Foundation to organize the American gay community—hopefully without drawing attention from the FBI.

Ep. 2 “The Call” takes place right where I’m standing, in Silverlake, Los Angeles. Five queer communists gathered discreetly in the bushes to start a movement with Harry Hay’s document in their hands.
