Description: Focused on understanding and analyzing Lgbtq activism and protest globally this edited collection brings together voices from different parts of the world to examine Lgbtq protests and their impact. Through the lens of media culture and sociopolitical structures this collection highlights how cultural and technical factors like the emergence of social media and other digital platforms have impacted Lgbtq activism. This book draws on studies from countries as varied as Zimbabwe Bangladesh Sri Lanka Hungary Morocco China and the US. The contributions provide important insight into how social media and digital platforms have provided space for self - expression and protest and encouraged advocacy and empowerment for Lgbtq movements. It also examines the diversity and similarities between different national contexts and the various obstacles faced while spotlighting countries that are traditionally understudied in Western academia in an important step toward decolonizing research. Each chapter through the voices of activists and media scholars moves beyond an oversimplified examination of queer protests to show in rich detail the exciting yet complicated terrain of queer protests throughout the globe. This book is suitable for media communication and cultural studies students; researchers; academics; and Lgbtq activists as well as students and scholars from related academic disciplines.
