Queer Journalism Course

Queer Journalism plays an indispensable role in contemporary media, offering unique perspectives and driving social change. It encompasses reporting, analysis, and commentary produced by and for LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) individuals, addressing issues relevant to the community. The significance of queer journalism lies in its capacity to provide accurate representation, challenge dominant narratives, foster community, and advocate for equality.
