Abstract

This piece is an expression of what being queer means to me. It is a call to action, but also a love letter to my fellow queers, to intersectional justice, and to radical solidarity. It is a reflection on the power that comes from rejecting divisive narratives that keep us fighting for scraps, while those on top continue to gain more wealth and resources. I hope that when reading this piece, you consider what we could gain from unlearning, unpacking, and challenging the structures that tell us we have to be divided, and that there isn't enough acceptance and support to go around.
