Michel Foucault was one of the most famous, influential and controversial scholars of the 20th century--and, perhaps, all time.

He did it all to impress boys.

Rachel walks us through the first four decades of his life and career, with plenty of asides about the bizarre personal predilections that influenced his work for the better... and for the worse. (Don't worry; we'll be talking about that problem in part two.)

Kickass Queers shares the incredible life stories of amazing lesbian, gay, transgender, gender-nonconforming and otherwise queer people.
