Description | This book considers the rise of 'heteroactivism' showing how social media and new sources of funding gave new energy to the opponents of LGBTQ+ rights. Over the years LGBTQ+ activists have won several political victories, but this success sparked a backlash going beyond the role of the Christian right and the US borders. The authors show how the rhetoric of heteroactivists differs from that of their predecessors, exploiting notions of 'parental rights' and freedom of speech to assert heteronormative values in spaces ranging from schools to workplaces. They also reveal the increasingly transnational nature of anti-LGBTQ+ activism, with growing links between heteroactivists in the US, UK and beyond. |
