"No Secrets Anymore: Identities, Strategies and the Making of the Gay Rights Movement in the Basque Country" provides a reflexive sociology study of the establishment and development of EHGAM and GEHITU, two of the gay rights organizations in the Basque Country. This book offers in-depth interviews and participant observations of members of these two organizations and their social and cultural capitals in the field of regional gay rights movement, from their private coming out experiences to public debates on their sexual and political identities. This book focuses on strategies and functions of EHGAM and GEHITU and biographical discourses of gay rights movement activists to explore what capitals they can mobilize. One of the highlights is the story of Iñigo Lamarca, the founder of GEHITU, and how his life experience and charisma influenced the founding and growth of the organization. The successes of EHGAM and GEHITU prove that an effective political strategy of gay rights movement should focus on human dignity and social equality in the lives of lesbians, gay men and other sexual diversity.
