Gay Pride on Stolen Land: Homonationalism, Queer Asylum
Gay Pride on Stolen Land: Homonationalism, Queer Asylum and Indigenous Sovereignty at the Vancouver Winter Olympics Paper submitted for publication in GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies August 2012 Abstract In this paper we examine intersections between homonationalism, sport, gay imperialism and white settler colonialism. The 2010 Winter Olympics, held in Vancouver, Canada, produced new articulations between sporting homonationalism, indigenous peoples and immigration policy. For the first time at an Olympic/Paralympic Games, three Pride Houses showcased LGBT athletes and provided support services for LBGT athletes and spectators. Supporting claims for asylum by queers featured prominently in these support services. However, the Olympic events were held on unceded territories of four First Nations, centered in Vancouver which is a settler colonial city. Thus, we examine how this new form of ‘sporting homonationalism’ emerged upon unceded, or stolen, indigenous land of British Columbia in Canada. Specifically, we argue that this new sporting homonationalism was founded upon white settler colonialism and imperialism—two distinct logics of white supremacy (Smith, 2006).1 Smith explained how white supremacy often functions through contradictory, yet interrelated, logics. We argue that distinct logics of white settler colonialism and imperialism shaped the emergence of the Olympic Pride Houses. On the one hand, the Pride Houses showed no solidarity with the major indigenous protest ‘No Olympics On Stolen Land.’ This absence of solidarity between the Pride Houses and the ‘No Olympics On Stolen Land’ protests reveals how thoroughly winter sports – whether elite or gay events — depend on the logics, and material practices, of white settler colonialism. We analyze how 2 the Pride Houses relied on colonial narratives about ’Aboriginal Participation’ in the Olympics and settler notions of ‘land ownership’. -
Lesbian and Gay Music
Revista Eletrônica de Musicologia Volume VII – Dezembro de 2002 Lesbian and Gay Music by Philip Brett and Elizabeth Wood the unexpurgated full-length original of the New Grove II article, edited by Carlos Palombini A record, in both historical documentation and biographical reclamation, of the struggles and sensi- bilities of homosexual people of the West that came out in their music, and of the [undoubted but unacknowledged] contribution of homosexual men and women to the music profession. In broader terms, a special perspective from which Western music of all kinds can be heard and critiqued. I. INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 II. (HOMO)SEXUALIT Y AND MUSICALIT Y 2 III.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 What Grove printed under ‘Gay and Lesbian Music’ was not entirely what we intended, from the title on. Since we were allotted only two 2500 words and wrote almost five times as much, we inevitably expected cuts. These came not as we feared in the more theoretical sections, but in certain other tar- geted areas: names, popular music, and the role of women. Though some living musicians were allowed in, all those thought to be uncomfortable about their sexual orientation’s being known were excised, beginning with Boulez. -

The Politics of (In)Visibility
The Lesbian Lives Conference 2019: The Politics of (In)Visibility THE POITICS Centre for Transforming Sexuality and Gender & The School of Media University of Brighton 15th - 16th March 2019 Welcome! The organising team would like to welcome you to the 2019 Lesbian Lives conference on the Politics of (In)Visibility. The theme of this year’s conference feels very urgent as attacks on feminism and feminists from both misogynist, homophobic, transphobic and racist quarters are on the rise both here in the UK and elsewhere. It has been thrilling to see the many creative and critical proposals responding to this coming in from academics, students, activists, film-makers, writers artists, and others working in diverse sectors from across many different countries – and now you are here! We are delighted to be hosting the conference in collaboration with feminist scholars from University College Dublin, St Catharine’s College, Cambridge and Maynooth University. It is - what we think - the 24th Lesbian lives conference, although we are getting to the stage where we might start losing count. Let’s just say it is now a conference of some maturity that remains relevant in every age, as the world’s most longstanding academic conference in Lesbian Studies. What we do know is that the first ever Lesbian Lives Conference was held in 1993 in University College Dublin and has been trooping on since, with the dedication of academics and activists and the amazing support from the community. From this comes the unique atmosphere of the Lesbian Lives Conference which is something special – as Katherine O’Donnell, one of the founders of the conference, said: ‘there is a friendliness, a warmth, an excitement, an openness, a bravery and gentleness that every Lesbian Lives Conference has generated’. -
