The best non fiction book I've read (listened to) in a while... one that I need a physical of on my shelf. A revelation in so many ways.
I was not fair enough with this book. Maybe it's the situation we're all living right now, but it took me so long to go finish it. At the end of this book I just got the question: what is my utopia and what am I doing to deconstruct it?
I think I could read Amelia Abraham's personality through the book. How the journey started and how it ended. The (re)definition of the words we're using as a community and why we should care about the whole L-G-B and T and I and Queer brothers/sisters too.
“That we could have our freedom and our rights and equality on paper, but we would still carry shame, trauma and internalized hatred, as long as we were still taught that there are right and wrong ways to be, or that some LGBTQ+ people are more worthy of acceptance than others”. Pag. 321
