Understand the LGBTQIA+ headlines and keep track of the latest queer content and perspectives. This week's newsletter was written and edited by Rhys Everquill, with Queer Gaze from Jaheim Karim.
💬 This week:
- EHRC in hot water: A new investigation has found that gender critical lobbying groups have been in constant contact with the EHRC, including holding private meetings with the Chair and CEO.
- Crips Against Cuts: The disability rights protest group has staged a striking demonstration outside the Houses of Parliament. The government was forced to climb down much of its welfare cuts after a backbench rebellion.
- Trans and Muslim: In the wake of the killing of an openly gay imam earlier this year, Jaheim Karim writes on being trans and Muslim for Queer Gaze.
Skip the doomscrolling and support queer creatives instead. We are QueerAF – and so are you.
