Released this past spring, The Scholar and Feminist Online: A New Queer Agenda has already reached over 23,000 visits in over 100 different countries, record-breaking numbers for the publication. After working at BCRW as a Student Research Assistant this summer, I can attest to the fact that these figures served as validating, motivating reminders of the scope of our work. But they always remained abstract statistics linked together by intangible digital connections and metrics.
Not until I was sitting among an overflowing crowd last month at the NYU Department of Social and Cultural Analysis for the New Queer Agenda (NQA) Journal Launch & Reception did I begin to fully grasp the impact and breath of the publication – how it was helping to shape a larger national and international dialogue. A collaboration between the BCRW and Queers for Economic Justice (QEJ), the journal grapples with the work of academics, activists, and community organizations to promote a vision of LGBTQ organizing that moves beyond the platform of marriage equality toward an intersectional, more encompassing understanding of social and economic justice.
