Shaw. 520 $a "New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison's decision to arrest Clay Shaw on March 1, 1967 set off a chain of events that culminated in the only prosecution even undertaken in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Most accounts debate whether a New Orleans-based assassination conspiracy existed. In Cruising for Conspirators, historian Alecia Long shifts to the focus to sexuality, revealing how long-held beliefs about the criminal culpability of homosexuals provided the raw materials for Garrison's investigation and Shaw's selection as a suspect. Her research demonstrates conclusively that the Garrison investigation was birthed in a preoccupation with homosexuality and its relationship to criminality more generally. In turn, the conspiratorial terroir the DA cultivated in New Orleans served as a subterranean root system that fed the popular belief in a conspiracy and shaped the works of subsequent authors"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Shaw, Clay, $d 1913-1974 $x Trials, litigation, etc. 600 10 $a Kennedy, John F. $q (John Fitzgerald), $d 1917-1963 $x Assassination. 600 10 $a Garrison, Jim, $d 1921-1992. 600 17 $a Garrison, Jim, $d 1921-1992. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01729423 600 17 $a Kennedy, John F. $q (John Fitzgerald), $d 1917-1963. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00035588 600 17 $a Shaw, Clay, $d 1913-1974. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00007247 650 0 $a Trials (Conspiracy) $z New Orleans $z New Orleans $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Trials (Assassination) $z New Orleans $z New Orleans $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Gays $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z New Orleans. $z New Orleans. 650 0 $a Conspiracy theories $z New Orleans $z New Orleans $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Assassination. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00818962 650 7 $a Conspiracy theories. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01748943 650 7 $a Gays $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939281 650 7 $a Trials (Assassination) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156303 650 7 $a Trials (Conspiracy) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156316 651 7 $a Louisiana $z New Orleans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204311 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Trials, litigation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423712 830 0 $a Boundless South. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219011254.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=03EEEC9E5F0811ECA70E6FDD2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
