The Socialist Shelf Long Live Queer Socialism! : Rainbow Solidarity, ft. Matéo Penado
Y'all like socialism?
Y'all like queers?
Get ready for some...queer socialism!!
Matéo Penado of the Rainbow Collective joins us to talk about Leslie Feinberg's 2008 collection, "Rainbow Solidarity: In Defense of Cuba," an analytical, journalistic, and educational analysis of the history of the queer liberation struggle since the socialist Cuban revolution of 1959.
How did Cuba go from being hell on earth for queer people under capitalism to the kind of place that passes the most progressive family codes in the world in 2022? That's through the tireless work of the militant queer working class!
