📕 🏳️🌈 Reeling in the Queers, by Assistant Professor Páraic Kerrigan. The stories of ordinary people, who did extraordinary things for the fight for LGBTQ rights in Ireland. ℹ Over the course of the twentieth century, censorship, both by the Irish state and cultural censorship through more unofficial forms – such as pressure from unrepresentative minorities – attempted to suppress how LGBTQ lives appeared in Irish culture. This had a huge impact. When it comes to queer culture in Ireland, morality campaigns along with formal structures of the Irish state served critical roles in how gender and sexual diversity could emerge in literature and culture. ▶ Read more in this article, based on a chapter in Páraic Kerrigan’s Reeling in the Queers: https://lnkd.in/e7rVSm5V ▶ Buy 📕: https://lnkd.in/edj7vvmY Released on June 7 with New Island Press.

To torund out Pride Month and keep the conversation going, ODEIB's Mary Ellen LaRosa sat down with LGBTQ+ Rights Committee Co-Chair Hayley Gorenberg to discuss the vital topic of creating inclusive environments. During the conversation, they delve into the underlying social forces – e.g. professionalism, heteronormativity, cis sexism, ableism – and their roots in white supremacy. We can all train ourselves to recognize and interrupt dynamics of exclusion in order to produce more inclusive environments. And we can all learn to spot the gaps in understanding the are a byproduct of our privileges, as well as learn to own and correct our mistakes without defensiveness. Doing this work can be a process of growth and creativity! It’s not all blame and shame. We encourage you all to listen, reflect, and share your thoughts. https://lnkd.in/eSc-4RjR #InclusiveWorkplaces #DEIB #Allyship #NewYorkCityBarAssociation
