The Importance of Queerness
Gloria Borger: I want to start with a quote from our favorite academic paper of all time, the drag queen story hour paper that was called Drag Pedagogy. You need to hear those terms though narcissism or metacism that Gnostic doesn't just mean the narrow definition of the handful of Christian cults in the first century. It's got a broader definition and we're going to kind of get into that. The here and now is a prison house. That's apparently from page one of this book Cruising Utopia. We have never been queer yet queerness exists for us as an ideology that can be distilled from the past and used to imagine a future.
