Comprised almost entirely of newspaper and magazine clippings highlighting Nichols' work as a social activist and writer as well as various movements of interest to him. Included in this series are clippings of coverage of gay rights demonstrations, often related to government responses to the AIDS crisis. Several books of clippings (one with photographs) document Nichols' activities as a gay rights organizer in the cities of Washington, New York, and Cocoa Beach, Florida. In addition, clippings and printed materials related to "men's liberation" and related critiques of traditional gender roles can be found in this series. Copies of some writings by Nichols, notably the serialized "Calamus Chronicles" (originally "The Tomcat Chronicles"), as well as some clippings of articles and editorials written for Florida newspapers are housed in this series. Organized alphabetically.
