Sumario:We intend to analyze, through the Lampião da Esquina newspaper - a periodical published in April 1978 that circulated until mid - 1981 - about how was the treatment of the LGBT population (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transvestite, Transsexual and Transgender)by the altern ative press of that period.

To Think on the social role that such a structure of society fulfills, is to reflect o n the many forms Of exclusion that suffer the people who behave against the sexuality constructed as hegemonic. In addition, it becomes possible to observe the importance of Lampião da Esquina not only as an alternative newspaper but as a political tool th at contributed to the visibility of such issues in a period marked by a military regime and by changes in the way of acting of the groups that was said as "minority".
