'Queering The Museum' develops a queer analysis of the ways in which museums construct themselves, their core business, and their publics through the, often unconscious, use of inherited ways of knowing and doing.

"I had the privilege of coming out twice and it really is a gift. I feel proud of my gay male past and am shining in my transgender present and future. There’s power in being your authentic self out in the open. The world would be richer if we shared our experiences" @AsifaLahore

[Queer Britain Museum @QueerBritain]

"Not all queer people are able bodied. Those of us that are disabled are truly invisible - queer culture doesn’t include us. Its imagery, its entertainment, its psyche revolves around a specific body ideal. And it’s their loss." @AsifaLahore

#quoteoftheday

“We’re stretched thin, all of us; we vibrate; we quiver, we’re always on the alert. Reign of terror, they used to say, but terror does not exactly reign. Instead it paralyses. Hence the unnatural quiet.”

-Margaret Atwood (2019) The Testaments
