- LHBT, heteroseksisme, conservatisme, gelijke behandeling, sociale media, Verenigde Staten, Verenigd Koninkrijk, 21e eeuw
- 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.

- Description
- This book addresses interconnections between speciesism, sexism, racism, and homophobia, clarifying why social justice activists in the twenty-first century must identify and challenge these various intersecting forms of oppression simultaneously. Through personal narratives from women who have personally explored links of oppression between human beings and nonhuman animals, the authors examine exploitative enterprises such as cockfighting, factory farming, vivisection, and the bushmeat trade. The book demonstrates with painful clarity why every activist must be on board with other social justice concerns.

- Description
- The authors want to widen the understanding of homophobia. They did this by researching homophobia and fundamental rights within Italy, Slovenia, Hungary and the United Kingdom. The authors investigated three dimensions: the cultural and institutional definitions of homophobia (discrimination and hostility against lesbian and gay people), experiences of such phenomena and the strategies of resistance to homophobia and discrimination.
