Book, LGBTI+ Movement: a brief history from the 19th century to the present day[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. “Without the intention of writing an exhaustive manual, the author offers us an overview of the modern constitution of the LGBTI+ movement as a political movement that demands rights, equity and respect, from a Western geographic perspective.” Erika Hilton “Each of the parts that make up this book makes us advance in the understanding that our existence is a political act and what we do based on this awareness can, literally, be the measure of our success in a project of emancipation, horizontality and democracy.” Rita von Hunty In times of authoritarianism and moral conservatism, there is nothing like history to teach and inspire us in the resistance of the present. Systematizing years of studies and elaborations around the theme of sexual and gender diversity, Renan Quinalha shares in this book theoretical and historiographical reflections in accessible language, without renouncing the depth of discussions, with the aim of reaching a wider audience interested in the LGBTI+ universe . This work is intended both for people who want to investigate this topic in depth and for those who are taking their first steps in gender and sexuality studies. It is, above all, an invitation to political action and the fight for equality, diversity and democracy.
