LGBTSR,  The Weekly Readlines

The Weekly Readlines March 29

From the Editor’s Desk: The architects of Project 2025 and their human autopen in the White House continue to erase us (and lots of others), with a stated goal of restoring “shared American values.” It’s clear they do not consider anyone who doesn’t hold those values (racism, bigotry, white Christian supremacy) to be American. They’re eliminating all references to LGBTQ people in every branch of the government. Books, universities, corporate support, are all being targeted with tragic success. They are reconstructing the ghettos we lived in and redrawing the margins we stood outside. If all we’ll have left are protests and blogs, count me in. Assimilation was always a tease. Mark/LGBTSr.
