Raising awareness and calling attention to social issues is what NAMBLA was founded to do.  In 1978, we were organized to correct the record on man/boy love and call attention to the injustices faced by man/boy lovers.  Since then, we have published articles on a related constellation of issues, from ageism and corporal punishment to homophobia and the treatment of gay youth, as well as discussions of activist strategies to better raise awareness and organize action on these issues.  The links below offer a small sampling of related articles we have published in print and on-line.
