This paper addresses the teaching, research, and outreach experiences of an LGBTI+ collective's outreach project called "Corpolítica" (body politics), which was created in the University of Brasília (UnB) in 2014. The fundamental reflection analyses the cisgender and heteronormative power that structures the university, characterized by its intersectional approach. The methods used in this paper are: shared memory, document analysis, interviews, etc. The aim is to reflect on the peripheral space of this production and the impossibility of effectively occupy hegemonic positions, suggesting the use of the term "guerrilla" as a comprehensive category of those strategies. This paper also questions the current models of popular outreach, as it shows that outreach can also reproduce power dimensions of the "heterosexual matrix" (Judith Butler), or invest in an effective sociability of (de)construction of traditional forms of knowledge, always marked by the precarious situation of the subjects involved and the momentary experiences in the university sphere.

O texto trata das relações entre a experiência de extensão de uma coletiva LGBTI+, caracterizada pela interseccionalidade, e o poder heterocisnormativo na universidade. Relata as experiências de ensino, pesquisa e extensão do Projeto "Corpolítica" que foram construídas desde a perspectiva de uma Coletiva LGBT de mesmo nome, criada na Universidade de Brasília (UnB) em 2014. Do ponto de vista metodológico, utiliza-se da memória compartilhada, da análise documental, entrevistas etc. Propõe a reflexão sobre o lugar marginal dessa produção e a impossibilidade de, efetivamente, ocupar as posições hegemônicas, sugerindo a utilização do termo "guerrilha" como categoría compreensiva dessas estratégias. Interroga os atuais modelos de Extensão Popular, ao demonstrar que a extensão pode também reproduzir dimensões de poder da "matriz heterossexual" (Judith Butler) ou investir numa sociabilidade afetiva de (des)construção das formas tradicionais de saber, sempre marcada pelo lugar de precariedade das sujeitas envolvidas e pela efemeridade das experiências nos espaços universitários. ; This paper addresses the teaching, research, and outreach experiences of an LGBTI+ collective's outreach project called "Corpolítica" (body politics), which was created in the University of Brasília (UnB) in 2014.

"As film stars, actresses have throughout film history contributed to the film industry's glamorous surface, providing audiences with visual attraction and different representations of femininity. To talk about women in film as "invisible" may thus seem odd or even wrong. This book, however, is concerned with the paradox that on the other side of the camera, women are clearly underrepresented. This is true of contemporary film culture, and has been true historically, despite significant variations between countries/geographical areas, historical time periods and different roles/professions in film production, distribution and exhibition. This anthology recovers forgotten aspects of women's work and memory, tracing women's film work through the lens of Swedish film history, with a few forays into international film ventures. Using a variety of methods and approaches, including careful study of previously neglected archival material, lived experiences, interviews, and theoretical reflections on feminist historiography, the book explores themes of women's agency and (lack of) visibility in a cultural context very different to Hollywood, thus providing readers with a healthy counterweight to the dominance of Anglo-American material in film scholarship published in English. The articles deal with women's agency in a wide range of roles, in film production, exhibition and criticism, but also with new perspectives on stars/actresses and their agency, and including LGBT and queer identities.
The research presents material evidence of women's involvement in film culture being obscured and ignored because of its status as "women's work", and/or of marginal rather than mainstream interest. The book is divided into two parts, where the first part collects chapters that cover neglected dimensions of silent film culture and the use of archival film as cultural memory in documentary work from various time periods, whereas the second part of the book is focussed mainly on films and filmmaking in the 1970s and 1980s."

A Badge of Injury is a contribution to both the fields of queer and global history. It analyses gay and lesbian transregional cultural communication networks from the 1970s to the 2000s, focusing on the importance of National Socialism, visual culture, and memory in the queer Atlantic. Provincializing Euro-American queer history, it illustrates how a history of concepts which encompasses the visual offers a greater depth of analysis of the transfer of ideas across regions than texts alone would offer. It also underlines how gay and lesbian history needs to be reframed under a queer lens and understood in a global perspective. Following the journey of the Pink Triangle and its many iterations, A Badge of Injury pinpoints the roles of cultural memory and power in the creation of gay and lesbian transregional narratives of pride or the construction of the historical queer subject. Beyond a success story, the book dives into some of the shortcomings of Euro-American queer history and the power of the negative, writing an emancipatory yet critical story of the era

This paper aims to establish a historical context of the social organization of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals and transgender (LGBT) in San Salvador, El Salvador. It also seeks to contribute to safeguard the historical memory of sexual minorities in El Salvador.The methodology was exploratory to retrieve information about social movement and LGBT organizations (since the emergence of military dictatorships in 1932 through 2015). Research techniques included interviews with LGBT activists and documentation examination. The results point out to the social organization of the LGBT identities in San Salvador and their limited political gains. ; Este artículo tiene el objetivo de establecer un marco histórico de la organización social de lesbianas, gays, bisexuales, transexuales y transgéneros (LGBT) en San Salvador, El Salvador.

Since the early 1990s we have observed a wide media coverage of voguingas an underground cultural expression of the American LGBT community. When overflowing Hallem's borders, voguingbecame an act of resistance that impresses on the body subjectivities held back by modern rationalism. Today, occupying different spaces, voguersteach us that new performative textualities can be reconfigured in the gestural memory, allowing the deconstruction of gender essentialisms

Our thesis ambitions are centered around the investigation of memory and architecture as it relates to the narratives of erasure in urban space. Over the course of the academic year, we are seeking to use architecture as a lens to critique our current socio-political climate regarding gender inequity and political regression. Our site of speculation and research will be the city of Chicago, as it has a rich history of feminism and civil rights with many historic spaces of protest that accommodated intersectional identities and historic protests. In today's political climate, where Roe v. Wade is facing reversal in the Supreme Court and LGBT protection laws are being contested, school districts are the most segregated they have been since before Brown v. Board, and there is a tendency to forget the progress that has been made, we must recall specifi c instances of memory of Second Wave Feminism and Civil rights when women made strides for LGBT legal protection, female bodily autonomy, opposition to sexual violence, and sexual liberation, and black Americans made strides against systemic oppression and segregation. Using this research, we aim to propose a spatial critique of our socio-political climate by employing Rossi's interpretation of the "The Architecture of the City", Edward Hollis's "Memory Palace", and Colson Whitehead's "Underground Railroad", re-imagining historical spatial narratives within the current urban fabric of Chicago, actively reinforcing the memories of trauma and activism onto an alternative network of counter-memorial-inspired spaces. Using the idea of the "Memory Palace", in which the metaphorical recesses of the mind (the 'loci') were spatialized in an internal layout of a room to create a manifestation of personal memory, and the idea of the 'Memory Theater', we want to outwardly impose the collective memory of erased narratives onto the city's existing infrastructure and create a network of 'memory containers'-- interconnected spaces for consuming and imposing forgotten memories. Doing so will provide a lens into the past and demand that un-represented histories are not forgotten or reversed. We are identifying Chicago as a city with historic memory that is more related to a generic national identity that the actual intersectional local narratives that existed and continue to exist within it—or, at the most, a city committed to self-lobotomization, the erasure of its own memory. We understand Chicago as lacking a specifi c or intersectional, the local form of memory that represents the diverse narratives of social progress that it has actively housed for decades. We seek to identify and consolidate these memories. We want to pose the celebration of the collective memory of narratives that are otherwise underrepresented or erased within the urban fabric. The historic events which we hope to contain and memorialize are as follows: the history of the Jane Collective and their work that opposed the illegality of abortion and women's bodily autonomy before the passing of Roe v. Wade in 1973, the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests which resulted in the 'Chicago 8' arrests and subsequent protests that were inspired by public opposition to the Vietnam War, and the 1953 school segregation protests that were endorsed by Martin Luther King Jr. that resulted in over 200,000 students and adults standing in solidarity to oppose unfair overcrowding and segregation of black public schools. We want to deploy memory containers and manipulated contextual architectural objects and spaces, rather than sculptures or monuments, as containers of collective, civic memory. Working in aggregate, the containers transform these 3 events into an urban fabric of memory. These interventions will behave as a narrative-network, where collective, civic memories become programmatic elements, forming a superimposed narrative on the historic city. The Containers are not individually-conceived objects or spaces, but in composite, they communicate encyclopedic imagery of Chicago as well as the erased narratives of the 3 events that we are seeking to remember. The assemblage of the Containers on a given site generates a new civic condition: using the Containers as acupunctural elements, the superimposed memory infrastructure weaves into Chicago's existing urban conditions. The Containers layer, collage, and reinforce architectural, historical, and typological references onto the site. The Memory Containers exist as an alternate infrastructural network for consuming and re-imposing the erased memory of the city and the U.S. as a whole.

The homophobic assassination of Matthew Shepard in 1998 spread a vast debate in the United States about LGBT civil rights. Because this hate crime echoes the practice of lynching, the national newspapers and television networks are keen to screen and investigate it, seeking to understand the roots of violence. Within the public sphere, several interpretations of this event are available; also they are antagonistic to each other, they also complete each other. Through the textual analysis of two television movies and a theater play, I will show how these diverse narratives of Shepards's death are tied to a political agenda. Finally, I will discuss the political potential of empathy, when this affect is made available by the mass media. In conclusion, I will discuss how the sociological use of the notion of "memory" can be combined to a scientific recognition of the situated experience of individuals. ; L'assassinat homophobe de Matthew Shepard en 1998 a suscité aux États-Unis un vaste débat sur le statut et les droits des personnes lesbiennes, gays, bis et transsexuelles. Face à un crime de haine qui rappelle la pratique du lynchage, les grands médias nationaux s'interrogent sur les causes de cette violence. Plusieurs interprétations s'opposent et se complètent au sein de la sphère publique. À l'aide de deux téléfilms et d'une pièce de théâtre, j'exposerai les spécificités idéologiques de ces interprétations, puis je discuterai du potentiel politique de l'empathie, lorsqu'elle est permise par les médias de masse. Pour terminer, j'examinerai de quelle manière la pratique sociologique de la notion de mémoire peut être enrichie de l'expérience située portée par les acteurs sociaux, notamment les plus subalternes.
