Program Description

Event Details

In celebration of Pride Month, we have selected a book on LGBTQ+ history!

Join us in the courtyard for a discussion on Queer: A Graphic History by Meg-John Barker and Julia Scheele.

Here's a description of our title this month:

"Activist-academic Meg John Barker and cartoonist Julia Scheele illuminate the histories of queer thought and LGBTQ+ action in this groundbreaking non-fiction graphic novel. A kaleidoscope of characters from the diverse worlds of pop-culture, film, activism and academia guide us on a journey through the ideas, people and events that have shaped 'queer theory'.

From identity politics and gender roles to privilege and exclusion, Queer explores how we came to view sex, gender and sexuality in the ways that we do; how these ideas get tangled up with our culture and our understanding of biology, psychology and sexology; and how these views have been disputed and challenged."

Come one, come all: we practice inclusivity and nonjudgment in our group. #saferspace
