Oppositely\, conservatives incite panic over “groomers” and a contagi ous “gender ideology” that corrupts susceptible youth. Yet\, as this debat e rages on\, the history of what first compelled the hunt for homosexualit y’s biological origin story may hold answers for the queer rights movement ’s future.\n\n \n\nBorn This Way tells this story\, bridging past fights a gainst pathological accounts of queer desire and searches for a “gay gene” with ongoing scientific and political conversations about what it means t o be a man or a woman\, gay or straight\, cis or trans. The book reveals h ow scientific and medical professionals came to bolster the fight for civi l rights\, how conservatives have fought back against equality and science alike\, and what pitfalls biological narratives of identity present queer advocates today.\n DTSTART:20240219T170000Z DTEND:20240219T183000Z LOCATION:IGSF Seminar Room\, Peel 3487\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1W7\, 348 7 rue Peel SUMMARY:Born This Way: Science\, Citizenship\, and Inequality in the Americ an LGBTQ+ Movement URL:/igsf/channels/event/born-way-science-citizenship- and-inequality-american-lgbtq-movement-353451 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
