Includes bibliographical references and indexes."Queer Exhibition Histories is composed of case studies, interviews and essays that emphasize different queer exhibitions and their modes of presentation and archiving. Many of these projects were short-lived or were executed between the walls of the private or domestic space, far beyond the scope of any institutional recognition. Therefore, the exhibitions materialized on limited budgets, were hardly documented and received barely any media coverage. For this reason, the legacy of these projects is highly dependent on personal archives, memories and paraphernalia, whereof the entries are not always easy to find. The events were not only artistic, but they could equally be discursive, activist and educational, or serve as a tool for community building. At the intersection of queerness and contemporary art, Queer Exhibition Histories investigates how the efforts of LGBTQIA+ artists and curators have advanced their public presence"--

"A visually stunning graphic non-fiction book on queer and trans resistance. Over the past ten years, we have witnessed the rise of queer and trans communities that have defied and challenged those who have historically opposed them. Through bold, symbolic imagery and surrealist, overlapping landscapes, queer illustrator and curator Syan Rose shines a light on the faces and voices of these diverse, amorphous, messy, real, and imagined queer and trans communities. In their own words, queer and trans organizers, artists, healers, comrades, and leaders speak honestly and authentically about their own experiences with power, love, pain, and magic to create a textured and nuanced portrait of queer and trans realities in America. The many themes include Black femme mental health, Pacific Islander authorship, fat queer performance art, disability and health care practice, sex worker activism, and much more. Accompanying the narratives are Rose's startling and sinuous images that brings these leaders' words to visual life. Our Work Is Everywhere is a graphic non-fiction book that underscores the brilliance and passion of queer and trans resistance. Includes a foreword by Lambda Literary Award-winning author and activist Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, author of Care Work : Dreaming Disability Justice."--

Includes bibliographical references (pages 160-170) and index.Introduction: Thinking brown and trans together -- Dolorous proximities of race and transsexuality : reading the Gwen Araujo archive -- Examining transphobic violence and the politics of valuation : the death of Angie Zapata and the incarceration of the hateful other -- Fleshing out the Chicana/x butch and Chicano/x FTM borderlands -- The wound makes the man : trans figuring Chicano masculinities -- Coda: Reading with the x."Arguing that brown transgender narratives are frequently silenced and erased in US queer, transgender, and Latinx and Chicanx cultural politics, Galarte considers the contexts in which these narratives appear; how they circulate; and how they are reproduced in politics, sexual cultures, and racialized economies. Seeking to restore personhood and agency to these subjects, Francisco J. Galarte advances "brown trans figuration" as a theoretical framework to describe how transness and brownness coexist within the larger queer, trans, and Latinx historical experiences"--

The lesbian South : southern feminists, the women in print movement, and the queer literary canon / by Harker, Jaime,author.(CARDINAL)484482;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 203-232) and index.Introduction. Southern, feminist, queer : the archive of southern lesbian feminism -- Creating a southern lesbian feminist culture : the women in print movement and the battle of the literary -- The radical South : politics and the lesbian feminist imaginary -- Queer sexuality and the lesbian feminist South -- Women's space, queer space : communes, landykes, and queer contact zones in the lesbian feminist South -- Conclusion. Lesfic : alternative publishing, activism, and queer women writers."Much of the scholarship published on gay writers in the American South has focused on men, eliding the vibrant history of lesbian authorship and print culture. In The lesbian South, Jamie Harker explores the literature of lesbian-feminist writers, feminist print culture, presses, and bookstores in the post-1960s American South. Harker argues that lesbian presses and bookstores enabled the development of feminist reading and writing communities. These communities both challenged and nurtured lesbian writers, while also encouraging a feminist-inspired racial activism and individual autonomy"--
