(Re)Directing Our Energies to Queer Worldmaking

The 32nd Gay Spirit Visions Fall Conference is focused on (Re)Directing our Energies to Queer Worldmaking. Queer worldmaking has become a popular term among queer theorists to describe the ways in which we make space for ourselves and each other in a world not designed for us or by us. As gay, bi, trans, and queer men who walk between worlds, we are often called upon to create space for ourselves and each other. Knowing this, we can direct and redirect our energy to create worlds more meaningfully and intentionally. Our 32nd fall gathering will focus on bridging past-present-future to direct our energy to create worlds we need for ourselves and each other. We will also mark the ways in which this conference is a sort of coming home to ourselves and each other as we enter what we hope is the late-stage of this latest global pandemic.
