The LGBTQIA+ community is more misunderstood than ever with the rise of this administration’s attacks on individuals who are perceived as “abnormal”, different and resistant to the normalcy of heterosexuality. But what is being queer? This course will cover a basic understanding of queer identities, queer politics and queer theory; hopefully creating a foundation for a queer analysis applicable to mainstream conversations. What is the connection between queerness and women’s rights? How is queerness tied to resistance against a capitalist state? How can the politics of normativity be applied to homosexuality and what are the effects of normalization?
