"I’ve watched brilliant colleagues apply textbook approaches while missing the handprints of police raids, medical torture, and political scapegoating that shape their LGBTQ+ clients’ inner worlds."

CBCHer photos captured Halifax's queer and women's rights movements. Now they're being preserved | CBC NewsAfter Anita Martinez died on Feb. 4, members of the 2SLGBT+ and women's rights communities in Halifax joined in to help preserve tens of thousands of photos depicting those movements from the late 1980s onward.

Next Saturday, March 22nd, Firestorm will be hosting Rattling the Cages co-creator Eric King in conversation with two veterans of the George Jackson Brigade—Janine Bertram and Mark Cook. Together they'll reflect on their experiences as political prisoners and the legacy of one of the most prolific US revolutionary groups in the 1970s, which synthesized movements for women's liberation, queer liberation, and Black power.

Register for this free event and find copies of "Ratting the Cages: Oral Histories of North American Political Prisoners" at firestorm.coop/events/3337-rat. Not sure you can make it? Register anyway and we'll send you a recording of the conversation to stream at your convenience.

Someone proposed that LEGO make a set for the Stonewall National Monument in New York. It seems really well-designed to me, and LEGO's policy is that if a proposal gets over 10,000 votes, they'll actually consider it and respond. It's sitting around 9,500 votes right now. You can vote for it at the link below.

"Self Portrait," Gluck, 1921.

Gluck (1895-1978) was a pioneering queer artist, and a forerunner of the current genderqueer movement.

Born Hanna Gluckstein in London, in 1916 Gluck moved to Lamorna, an artists' colony in Cornwall, with a lover, E. M. Craig, about whom very little is known. By 1918 Gluck had adopted the mononym and was dressing in male clothing and painted smoking a pipe.

Gluck never declared any relation to a specific school or style, although here we can see a definite Art Deco influence. Gluck became known mostly for portraits and florals, but in the late 30s Gluck's style fell from favor, resulting in an artistic hiatus that lasted until the late 60s. Then Gluck began painting again, and had one last show before passing away.

Gluck never clearly identified as either sex, but had a number of female lovers. One painting, "Medallion," is regarded as one of the great depictions of a lesbian relationship.
