Paperback. Sometimes it pays to be gay and do crime.As communities are boldly rising to challenge capitalism, white supremacy, and authoritarianism, Be Gay, Do Crime: Everyday Acts of Queer Resistance and Rebellion is your ultimate guide to LGBTQ+ resilience and rebellion. Packed with daily snapshots of radical queer history, this book celebrates the bold, the brave, and the beautifully defiant moments that have shaped the fight for justice.Ever wonder why the Stonewall protests became an uprising or what the earliest acts of queer resistance looked like? How about the ways queer communities have organised against oppression across the globe? Be Gay, Do Crime dives into these stories and so many more from fierce acts of resistance to joyful victories bringing to life the rich, diverse history of LGBTQ+ liberation.By situating readers within a larger pattern of struggle, these everyday acts counter the erasure of queer people from history and serve as a reminder that our struggles are part of a broader fight against systemic violence and dehumanisation.But, this isnt just a history book; its a rallying cry. Flip to any page, soak up some inspiration, and join the legacy of resistance. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
