  • Pizzagate / Pedogate, a No-Nonsense Fact-Filled Reader
    Pizzagate / Pedogate A No-nonsense Fact-filled reader Preface I therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat. —Trump Executive Order 13818, Dec. 20, 2017 Pizzagate means many things to many people, the angle of the lens may be different, but the focus zeros in on a common body of incontestable facts. The fruit of top researchers collected in this reader allows you to compare, correlate and derive a flexible synthesis to suit your needs. An era of wild contradiction is upon us in the press. The psychopathic rumblings that pass for political discourse bring the artform of infotainment to a golden blossoming. A bookstore display table featuring The Fixers; The Bottom-Feeders, Crooked Lawyers, Gossipmongers, and Porn Stars Who Created the 45th President versus Witch Hunt; The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History are both talking about the same man, someone who paid for his campaign out of his own pocket. There were no big donors from China and the traditional bank of puppeteers. This created a HUGE problem, one whose solution threatened the money holders and influence peddlers. New leadership and a presidential order that threw down the gauntlet, a state of emergency, seeded the storm clouds. The starting gun was fired, all systems were go, the race had begun. FISAs and covert operations sprang into action. The envelopes are being delivered, the career decisions are being made, should I move on or stay the course.

    COLD OPEN: Griselda Blanco. The Godmother. La Madrina. The Black Widow. The Columbian drug lord who came BEFORE the Medellin Cartel. Before Pablo. The woman who helped turn Miami into both the most murderous city in America in the early 80s - with brazen hits, machine gunning down a rival at a mall liquor store in broad daylight, ordering a hit on an entire family, and - one of the drug lords who helped build Miami’s skyline. 80’s drug money built a lot of those beach condos. Built a lot of those downtown skyscrapers. Unlike most Columbian drug lords, Griselda did anything but keep the business away from her family. She forced her family into the business, and it cost most of those around her their lives. And yet she lived to the ripe old age of 69 - ancient by drug lord standards. So let’s get into some cocaine. Let’s get into Columbia, New York, and Miami. Let’s go full Griselda in this coked up, machine gun, gangster edition of Timesuck! PAUSE INTRO MUSIC I.

Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how liter- ature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present.

I thank my committee, the Department of Political Science, the Center for Women’s Studies and Gender Research, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the Graduate School at the University of Florida for giving me the opportunity, financial support, and intellectual freedom to follow my curiosity wherever it led. I thank my undergraduate teacher and mentor, Art Vanden Houten, for introducing me to Catharine MacKinnon’s Toward A Feminist Theory of the State and, inadvertently, the sex wars when I was a student in his Contemporary Political Thought course at Flagler College in the spring of 2003. Finally, I thank my wife, Paola Aguirre, my friends and colleagues, Mauro Carracioli, Alec Dinnin, Billy Kelly, Jessica Lancia, Manu Samnotra, and Seaton Tarrant, my parents, Lana and Michael Bracewell, and my sister, Amy Wenditz, for listening patiently, sharing generously, and forgiving readily when I neglected my most important obligations for the sake of this comparatively inconsequential project. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ...............................................................................................................4

These articles represent two of the earliest works describing the racial apartheid experienced by Chicanas/os in Texas written from a Chicano perspective. Rechy then exposed another taboo, the homosexual underground of the pre-Stonewall Rebellion (1969) era, when one’s presence in a gay bar elicited harsh retribution from the state—from sex-offender status registration to involuntary electroshock therapy. Rechy’s debut novel, City of Night (1963), is a semi-autobiographical tale of a nameless protagonist navigating urban America as a hustler defying a society that criminalized queer ii bodies, desires, and lives.

  • Queer Youth and Everyday Spaces in Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand: a Photovoice Project Matthew Barry Scott
    Queer Youth and Everyday Spaces in Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand: A Photovoice Project Matthew Barry Scott A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Geography School of Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Victoria University of Wellington Te Whare Wānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika a Māui 2019 ii Abstract Queer people are often ‘othered’ in everyday spaces because of the assumptions, practices, and beliefs that reinforce heterosexuality and cis-gendered bodies as normal and natural. For queer youth, these experiences are further exacerbated by their age and agency. Yet there has been little explicit geographic scholarship focused on understanding how queer youth navigate heteronormativity and practice their subjectivities in different everyday spaces. In this thesis, I draw on the work of queer theory and geographies of sexuality literature to consider how subjectivities are constructed, controlled, and experienced by some queer youth in everyday spaces of Wellington, Aotearoa-New Zealand. I work within a transformative epistemology, and use photovoice as my research method to present the reflective engagements of six queer youth aged between sixteen and twenty-two through their photographs and accompanying narratives. Using Foucauldian discourse analysis to examine the participants’ visual and verbal texts yields contradicting and varying experiences of heteronormativity. Processes of subjectivity negotiation, queering space, conforming strategies, and gender performance influence how queer youth are placed within their everyday spaces. Safe spaces, like nature, the stage, and queer youth groups provide queer youth with the ability to be self-expressive, escape from the pressures of everyday life, and be surrounded with other queer people.
