By homonormativity, we refer to Duggan’s (2003) argument that LGBT culture has become assimilationist and no longer rejects or contests dominant heteronormative assumptions and institutions. In referring to homonationalism, we invoke Puar’s (2007) claim that the queer body has been largely represented as a white one, leading to the othering of non-white bodies within LGBT culture.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"> </span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Abstracts for papers which question, critique, offer insight into or explore the impact of homonormativity and/or homonationalism on modern LGBT speakers are welcomed.
