News Director Nanette Wiser caught up with powerhouse Susan Gore about the upcoming SpeakOUT event. On November 14 7-9 pm at Gulfport Library, LGBTQ+ activist Susan Gore will moderate: SpeakOUT: LGBTQ Identity and Law, Literature and Media. There will be a reception 6:30 – 7 p.m. This FREE series is sponsored by OUT Arts & Culture, with funding support from Florida Humanities. ASL interpretation will be available. Onsite and online access is available by registering on Eventbrite: SpeakOUT: LGBTQ Identity & LITERATURE, LAW and the MEDIA Tickets, Thu, Nov 14, 2024 at 7:00 PM | Eventbrite
This interactive roundtable will discuss projected trends in queer literature, law and media representations in relation to different November 5 election outcomes. For example:
· What is it about “queer” literature or media visibility that is seen as threatening by some and valuable by others?
· How do current attempts to restrict access to books and/or discussion of LGBTQ topics create dilemmas for educators, parents, students and society at large?
· How may these dilemmas be addressed productively?
