In Ukraine, being visibly queer is an act of rebellion, but LGBTQI+ people find ways to express themselves against all odds. This anthology is a platform for their voices, an archive of their existence, and proceeds from the sales go to charities supporting LGBTQI+ people in Ukraine. It is time for them to tell their stories on their own terms and for the world to stand in solidarity with them. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 112 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 February 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Renard Press Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmidst the backdrop of a ruthless invasion, right-wing figures find it much easier to target marginalized groups, particularly during times of war. The queer community, in particular, becomes exceedingly vulnerable to persecution, scapegoating, and censorship. Being visibly queer in Ukraine is an act of rebellion in itself, but LGBTQI+ individuals find ways to express themselves against all odds, creating art that transcends societal constraints. Queerness, without defiance, is the unity of voices, the echo of a hundred echoes. Each voice tells a unique story, and this anthology serves as a platform for these voices, an archive of their existence. It is time for them to tell their stories on their own terms, and for the world to stand in solidarity with them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProceeds from the sales of this book will be donated to a selection of charities supporting LGBTQI+ individuals in Ukraine.
