QUEER CONSUMPTION OF ART, VISUAL CULTURE, & RAMBLINGS OF MY LIFE

For Pride, I Wanna Be an Outlaw Again by Tommi Avicolli Mecca

Pride these days does nothing but wash away the hard work done by activists. In this corporate washing, “gay politics” get riddled down to nothing. Wells Fargo, Comcast, Budweiser, etc. all have their stands out, waiting to reel in that “pink” dollar from the privileged Pride attendees. There’s no talk about homeless and at risk youth, or racism, sexism, ableism and transphobia within the LGBTQ community. There’s nothing to celebrate here.
