This brief biography is a beautiful read. “Seems to me that one big difference between the revolutionary and the fascist is that one tries to understand his own heart and one doesn’t.”

Allan Troxler in a note, circa 1969
“He is part of the legacy of North Carolina, part of the queer legacy, part of the artistic legacy, and part of a spiritual determination not to be mowed down by the brutal forces that we grew up in and pushed back,” says Mab Segrest.

I first met Allan at a house party visiting Durham in spring of 2016. I was struck by his gentle nature, rootedness in moral conviction, way of seeing beauty in the world, and generosity. Grateful to have know him his final decade. Thanks @eddysarah.bsky.social for this lovely tribute 🩵
