“Queerness is reclamation. It is powerful and subversive and fierce and undeniably holy. Yes. It is. But to have a lived experience of queerness is also to hold an intimate knowledge of othering. It is to hold rejection, fear, or violence in your body - whether historical or actual or potential - at all times because of nothing more than who the soft animal of our good queer bodies bends toward loving.” Queer ResilienceHistorical Trauma And QueernessLiving Queer ExperiencesOthering And QueernessQueer Bodies And LoveQueer Identity And PowerQueer StrengthQueerness And ReclamationRejection And Fear In QueernessSubversive Identity Author:Jeanette LeBlanc
