It’s heartening to see QUEER ORIGINS finding its way into libraries — just in time for the new academic year! 🏳️🌈📚🦋
Academics & students: if your uni library doesn’t have it yet, please ask them to stock it. 🙏

I wrote this blog when QUEER ORIGINS was published in the UK. I'm reposting it now that the book is out in Canada and the US.
Read about the natural wonder of sexual polymorphism — and why Richard Dawkins' view of Darwin needs amending. 🌈📚🦋

So, I've been downloading #GBLTQ resources and historical documents (including #QueerTalk, a radio show on #WMPG hosted by one of my first friends after I moved to #Maine). Why am I doing this? Because I don't trust #Trump and fiends to be in charge of public university archives. I'll be uploading those precious digital records to the @internetarchive soon. So grateful IA are there to be an independent repository of #History and #Culture! 📚 🎧 🎥

Bayard Rustin organized the 1963 March on Washington from the shadows a homophobic era forced him into. Ran the whole thing. Stood offstage.
Sylvia Rivera fought to keep the "T" from being cut out of the movement — the exact sorting we watched again today. The thread doesn't break.
Who wrote you into the record before you could?

History / Hemphill + Rivera
Essex Hemphill wrote in the teeth of a plague, when the men in pulpits called the dying deserved. Thirty-four years later a pastor recycles the same machinery. We kept reaching for each other anyway. The fear was theirs. The tenderness was ours.

"I left home at ten because I was effeminate. The street was my home." — Sylvia Rivera. She had nothing and made a movement out of refusing to disappear. Witness is not a soft act. It's keeping your eyes open when closing them costs less.

Szene steht in dieser Tradition. Weltweit wird an der Auslöschung transgeschlechtlicher Jugendlicher gearbeitet, mit erschreckenden Folgen. Unsere Rechte bleiben verletzlich, solange der Schutz der geschlechtlichen Identität nicht explizit im Grundgesetz verankert ist.

Farewell forever to Cecilia Gentili, a giant of art and advocacy for trans people, immigrants, and sex workers. She will be sorely missed.
"Gentili was in the midst of a period of creative flourishing, having released her stunning debut book Faltas: Letters to Everyone in My Hometown Who Isn’t My Rapist in 2022, and performing her autobiographical off-Broadway show Red Ink in 2023...
In her organizing work, Gentili was known for bringing explosive trans joy to every project she touched. Last summer, she birthed and co-organized Transmissions Fest, the first all-trans music festival in New York City, with proceeds benefiting LGBTQ+ charities. 'We are often included in Pride events, but we’re not centered,' she said. 'And there’s a difference.' In 2020, she hosted Fierce Futures, a fundraiser supporting organizations that serve Black trans people."
She was only 52. RIP. #TransActivism #LGBTQIA #QueerHistory #CeciliaGentili

A SOUND.
Elephant beaten with candy and little pops and chews all bolts and reckless reckless rats, this is this.

Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) lived openly and famously with her love Alice B. Toklas
