![]() ![]() From Mortville, the queer camp at Occupy Baltimore, to the Feminists and Queers Against Capitalism bloc at the Oakland general strike, queers are playing central roles in Occupy spaces. And yet, this slogan invokes a vision of sameness that stands in stark contrast to a queer analysis that foregrounds, cultivates, and nurtures difference. "We are the 99%," the central slogan of the Occupy movement, has been crucial in rallying mass support. Ignited by the Arab Spring, uprisings in Greece and Spain, and protests in Wisconsin, Occupy Wall Street has brought corporate greed and structural inequality into the spotlight while claiming public space and refusing hierarchical models of resistance. ![]() ![]() Queering the Occupy Movement, Reimagining Resistance When I update these listings, I tend to post tweets about it atĬall for Sumissions by chubby queers of color: Lines blog sometimes posts info on calls for submissions.

This year, as I had decided to read and write about books involving travel, “rabbits on the move” came immediately to mind and I added it to my to-read list for KC Unbound. The glazing process was complete – the rest of the pitch came across as blah, blah, blah blah. He started to summarize the story, but all I recall was that the main rabbit was named Hazel, and that there were some other rabbits named Bigwig, Dandelion, Fiver and Pipkin. When I asked what the book was about, I remember him telling me “rabbits on the move trying to find a new home.” When I was at college, a fellow student told me that I had to read Watership Down.

His second tip relates to whether the words he says are consistent with his actions. 'Remember, if the guy can't make his mind up whether he wants to be with you after three months, then he's a very low value man because it shows that he's very indecisive and you deserve somebody so much better.' 'And this is why: if he was dating his celebrity crush for three months, and she said to him, "do you want to be in a relationship with me?", he wouldn't be saying no, absolutely not.
