KPFA - Womens MagazineRoderick Ferguson’s (Not) One-Dimensional Queer; Amy Foley Creates Feminist DanceIn his new book, One-Dimensional Queer (a homage to Herbert Marcuse), Roderick Ferguson counters orthodox portrayals of a gay movement narrowly focused on civil rights, and shows how queer liberation emerged out of various insurgent struggles crossing the politics of race, gender, class, and sexuality. Tracing the rise and fall of this intersectional politics, he argues that the mainstreaming of queerness intentionally, and falsely,placed critiques of racism, capitalism, and the state outside the remit of gay liberation. A fascinating unearthing of seldom discussed LGBT history, including groups like STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries) and the Philadelphia-area coll...2019-04-0159 min

- zamawiający z góry zna trasę przejazdu,
- znana jest też cena za kurs.
