Bookwyrm note: just learnt how to add new titles for obscure anarchist titles to our local instance and put this one in! It is as simple as adding /create-book to the end of your instances url and filling out the details and uploading a pic of the cover. Definitely going to expand and add texts as I go through them now!

Sigmundur Mørkøre quoted Queering Anarchism by C. B. Daring
There is frequently a sense of "scarcity of liberation" within reformist social movements, the feeling that the possibilities for freedom are so limited that we must fight against the other marginalized groups for a piece of the pie. This is in direct opposition to the concept of intersectionality, since it often requires people to betray one aspect of their identity in order to politically prioritize another.
— Queering Anarchism by C. B. Daring, J. Rogue, Deric Shannon, and 1 other (Page 30 - 31)
While I applaud the great work that LGBT+ Faroe Islands have done, I can't help but critique their reformist strategy which only takes up one issue at the time, even having to take turns with other reformist movements.
It seems to me a better strategy would be a intersectional strategy which would fight for an all-encompassing liberation for all people.
I think J. Rogue explains the issue so eloquently and concisely in this quote.
