ABOUT THE EVENT<\/p>\n

Queer precarity is a reality. As the wealth gap continues to grow, LGBT\/Q people struggle with increasing hardships and economic crisis, alongside the majority of working-class and poor Americans. Economic precarity has necessitated new forms of labor organizing, including worker centers and union\u2013community partnerships. But the particular struggles of queer and gender non-conforming people remain sidelined, both in scholarly work and in the LGBT and labor movements themselves. Class, race, the erotic, gender identity, sexuality, desire: how are these issues intertwined and interlocked in our analysis and in our organizing?<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE SPEAKER<\/p>\n

Amber Hollibaugh is currently a Senior Activist Fellow at the Barnard Center for Research for Women where she directs the Queer Survival Economies project.<\/p>\n
