Check out our new article: Queer and Trans Subjects in Iranian Cinema: Between Representation, Agency, and Orientalist Fantasies

“Historically, some European men who came into contact with the Middle East both fantasized about and denounced the closed-door sexual lives of Middle Eastern men and women, especially homosocial spaces and same-sex relations. European women, on the other hand, sought to save their Oriental “sisters” whom they viewed as oppressed by their religion and Oriental men, as elucidated by Harvard Professor Leila Ahmed in her book, Women and Gender in Islam. These attitudes toward Middle Easterners continue to this day, an example of which can be found in the movie Circumstance whose relatively positive public reception in the West arises from this conformity to Western Orientalist imaginaries, whereas the movie Facing Mirrors disrupts and challenges the hegemonic and Orientalizing narrative of Iran’s sexual and gender minorities, and is thus ignored and excluded from the cultural and artistic public domain.”

Freight Train and Other North Caroline Folk Songs and Tunes

Songs recorded in 1957, 1958, Album released 1989by Smithsonian Folkways

Today’s song isn’t by anybody big or famous, just a little old lady playing her guitar.

If you like old folk music, be sure to check out the Smithsonian’s Folkways Radio (it’s in the left hand side bar). They not only play American folk music, but a variety of music from other countries and native people.

(P.S. Follow this blog for more music! I post a song a day!)

anarcho-queer:

Guerrilla art intervention from the streets of San Francisco in 2009.

The right side reads “I ♥ my man but I wish my LGBT community worked for housing, health care and human rights for all, not just marriage rights for gay couples.”
