Right-wing fanatics wish to silence and erase the LGBTQ community – from our history and culture to everything in between. This is why we launched OutFAU. LGBTQ students need a voice. And we will be that voice.
OutFAU was founded in protest of Gov. Ron DeSantis’ decision to defund diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts within the state university system. We believe that this government overreach suppressed students’ freedom of expression, and readers’ freedom to learn and engage with diverse perspectives within FAU.
Neoliberalism. According to Logan McGraw, that’s what is wrong with the current LGBTQ+ rights movements.
Fred Fejes has seen it all before. The longtime FAU queer studies professor sat down with OutFAU for an in depth interview about his career, time in academia and how the past has become the present again in terms of LGBTQ+ rights.
“See, God loves the gays!” Brooke Eden, a queer country star, exclaimed on stage as the rain cleared up at Palm Peach Pride, which took place Sunday, March 24, in Lake Worth Beach. Located in Bryant Park, the event welcomed thousands of members and allies of the LGBTQ+ community to celebrate Pride.
Michael Alroy, a transgender man from South Africa now residing in Israel, believes in developing tolerance and recognition of “the other.”
Memory work is resistance, and that is what makes history for the LGBTQ+ community so important.
Last September, 24 prominent members of the FAU student body and myself participated in a trip visiting Israel-Palestine to learn about the conflict.
One of the biggest events of the year for the LGBTQ+ community in Palm Beach County is fast approaching. Palm Beach Pride, run by Compass LGBTQ+ Community Center, will be taking place Saturday, March 23 and Sunday, March 24, at Bryant Park in Lake Worth Beach.
