    {PDF EPUB} Outside the XY Queer Black and Brown

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Outside the XY Queer Black and Brown Masculinity by Morgan Mann Willis Interview: queer collective bklyn boihood tell us about their upcoming book Outside the XY: Queer, Brown Masculinity. The bklyn boihood collective has been a strong foundation of the queer people of color (QPOC) community in NYC since their launch in 2009 with their LGBT-friendly parties, character-building workshops for healthier presentations of masculinity, and of course their infamous, annual calendar highlighting local brown bois. Now they’ll be making history as the curators for the first anthology written solely by masculine of center (MoC) queer people and transgender men of color called Outside the XY: Brown Queer Masculinity , to be published by Magnus Books and released mid 2015. TONY sat down with bklyn boihood collective member Morgan "Mo" Willis and founder Ryann Holmes to talk about their hopes for the book, the many layers of the boihood and what they’re up to today. For the record, the author of this story (me!) identifies within the boi/QPOC community and has followed and supported the collective's journey for healthy masculinity for a few years now. Ryann is also the Community Programming Director of MoCADA and is in charge of the planning for the upcoming Soul of Brooklyn Festival taking place August 17-23. You started bklyn boihood in late 2009, correct? RYANN: Yeah, a lot of the stuff from 2009 was kind of underground. Planning, gathering the team together and producing our first calendar and in 2010 we really hit the ground running from that point.

  • Mother Fucker

    Mother Fucker

    Mother Fucker –the leather Mummy and the sexual, childless maternal body (a scholarly dissertation) & Lolly Poppins (a novel) Holly Zwalf A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of the Arts & Media Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences March 2014 Abstract This thesis is comprised of two components: a novel titled “Lolly Poppins” and a scholarly dissertation titled “Mother Fucker”. Despite a long history of feminist engagement with motherhood as an institution, an essentialist definition of the maternal prevails in popular social dialogues. These essentialist discourses are both scientifically invalid and theoretically untenable, yet they operate to circumscribe the social expectations of women, restricting not only mothers but also those who are excluded from this definition, such as trans* people, men, and childless women. Additionally, in keeping with the long-established and culturally imposed Madonna/whore dichotomy the maternal body continues to be subjected to intense public scrutiny and is heavily censored and regulated, particularly in relation to sexuality. My dissertation explores this sexual/maternal dichotomy as well as the problem of essentialism through a study of queer, women and trans* leather Mummies. Leather Mummies are people who engage in dominant maternal role-play in a BDSM context, in effect eroticising the omnipotent, nurturing force of the mother. Using a queer feminist framework I engage Butler’s theory of performativity in conjunction with maternal theory and femme/butch politics in order to examine whether the leather Mummy is able to succeed in subverting dominant maternal discourses, or whether she too ends up simply reinforcing maternal essentialism.
