Celebrating the legacy of Gay Flames, its role in fanning the flames of liberation, and its ability to inspire future generations to continue the fight
Loved this piece! Gay Flames is such a powerful image and so clever. It’s amazing how much groundwork has been laid for us by our queer elders. It’s a blessing to be able to have access to these texts for free. It gives me a lot of hope for the future.
Thank you so much! I totally agree, there’s so much power in what our queer elders created. I feel grateful every time I come across work like Gay Flames. It really does light the way forward.
Highly suggest you check out Thing originally a zine focused on the Black queer House music scene in the 1980s, now preserving that legacy and bringing Black queer culture. https://houseofthing.com/
I actually just came across Thing (the reproductions of all of the zines) at the Strand in NYC. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely look into them ✨
