Outrage

Why the Fight for LGBTQ+ Equality Is Not Yet Won and What We Can Do About It

De: Ellen Jones

Narrado por: Ellen Jones

Read by the author, Ellen Jones.

Despite being more visible in mainstream culture than ever before, LGBTQ+ people are facing unacceptable levels of prejudice and danger – from a marked increase in homophobic and transphobic violence, to the rollback of rights around the world.

In this groundbreaking, compelling and essential book, author and activist Ellen Jones sets out exactly how LGBTQ+ people continue to face discrimination, looking at education, sports, religion, marriage, mental health and much more.

In searing prose, punctuated with personal accounts from LGBTQ+ people from across the globe, Jones sets out not only the issues but also practical actions, both big and small, that all of us can take to help create a more equal society. What's more, she shines a spotlight on the amazing individuals already working hard to change things.

Whether you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community, an ally, or simply care about human rights and equality, Outrage is essential, and illuminating, listening.

Reseñas de la Crítica

'Personal, poignant & pertinent. An urgent reminder & a hopeful treatise on queer life that everyone should read.' (Deborah Frances-White, Author of The Guilty Feminist)

'A book which definitively and powerfully cuts through the attempts to undermine LGBTQ+ rights (particularly those of trans+ people) over the past decade. It's also fabulously written – Jones has an impressive talent for conveying complex ideas in a way that will stay with you.' (Natasha Devon, broadcaster, author and campaigner.)

'Outrage is a perfectly-timed reminder that queer people have so much more to fight for — and so much love to give.' (Eleanor Medhurst, author of Unsuitable: A History of Lesbian Fashion.)

'An impeccably well researched resource. Jones understands perceptibly the need for reflection, as well as action in the space of activism.. . . Allies always want to know where to start, this book is the answer.' (Ben Pechey, DEI consultant, and author of The Book of Non-Binary Joy & Your Gender Book.)

'Everyone must read Outrage. It’s a book for anyone who thinks marriage equality was the end of the fight for our rights… spoiler alert – it wasn’t. This is an urgent call to action for all queer people and our allies – proof that they’re coming for the rights of gays and lesbians after they are done with trans people.' (Charlie Craggs, activist, icon and author of To My Trans Sisters)

'With all that is going on in the world, it is a crucial time to amplify LGBTQ+ voices. Although so much has been done in the fight for equality, this book is a much needed battle-cry for the fight we still need to show up for. Essential reading for members of the community, and our allies.' (Rox Pink)
