#Queer #joy, and why it matters
Queers and queer joy and creativity are everywhere. And that's a good thing 🙂 — for everyone.
Joy is #resistance to #oppression and manufacturing of consent to hegemony. Queering is an essential ingredient for #democracy, equal rights, press #freedom and #journalism, and #collective action in planetary #health, science, #arts, innovation and society.

"His reporting into alleged ties between Hungary’s political leadership and Russian state actors triggered an unprecedented response: Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán publicly accused him of espionage."

Good piece in the Guardian recently about Axel Springer's embrace of authoritarian regimes such as Hungary and the United States, but it really annoys me to read phrases like "critics say" from journalists who really should have the guts to state as fact that the German publisher's "goals are sometimes undermined by the pages of his own titles."

Today in Labor History April 12, 1963: Mexican journalist and human rights activist, Lydia Cacho, was born on this day. She has reported extensively on violence and sexual abuse against women in Mexico. In 2006, she reported on the hundreds of female homicides in Ciudad Juárez. That same year, a tape emerged of a conversation between businessman Kamel Nacif Borge and the governor of Puebla, in which they conspired to have her beaten and raped for her reporting.
