I am officially starting a research project on queer pulp. I don’t know what form it will take or how many decades I’ll be working on it, but it’s time to start something. I have a recurring appointment at the Kinsey to go through 108 boxes of smut and that’s only the beginning!

G & V: It’s interesting to see how Hernandez navigated her intersectionality and pushed organizations to broaden their focus. And then she formed her own activist organizations when they didn’t listen!" (8/9)
a white piece of paper with handwritten notes with a yellow paper paperclipped to it. The yellow paper has the women power fist icon and reads ‘from the desk of a Liberated Woman.’ Below that in handwriting reads, ‘Right on Woman.’
