Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World
The amazing Meg-John Barker will be joining this exciting comics event since MJ Wallace is no longer able to attend. Barker's work includes Life Isn't Binary: On Being Both, Beyond, and In-Between. Queer: A Graphic History, How To Understand Your Gender (co-authored) Enjoy Sex (How, When, and IF You Want To) (co-authord), and Rewriting the Rules, The Psychology of Sex. The history of comics has always been queer and contemporary LGBTQ+ comics artists are continuing to explore and push the potential of comics to tell the stories of queer lives. Join cartoonists Eleanor Crewes (The Times I Knew I Was Gay) and Meg-John Barker in conversation with UCL English Lecturer Dr Christine "Xine" Yao at Gays the Word Bookshop for an in-depth discussion into the world of comics, which will surely result in a long list of titles to watch out for. Our Queer Comics panel is part of UCL annual Festival of Culture. Book your FREE tickets via the UCL link provided!
