This article addresses the theme of homosexuality in the news of the newspaper Diário de Pernambuco in the 1970s. How did the construction of gay identity, stigma and social prejudice about homosexuality take place at that time? What were the legal regulations and the information network against homosexuals? A case study was undertaken on how the news from the 1st Congress of Homosexuals, in Caruaru, reverberated in the capital. The methodology used seeks to intertwine the existing studies on homosexuality with historical sources of newspapers of the time. The aim is to analyze the different institutional and social strategies that underlie repression and discrimination against homosexuals and their culture.
