Queer Representation in Media
Workshop
3.5 hrs
September 01, 2019 2:00 pm Sunday
How does the media engage with the question of queerness? How could one engage with some of the positions that it takes on queer issues and queer representations?
What has been the role of the Telugu regional media around queer issues? What happens to queer lives in the everyday news cycle? What kind of queer narratives get shaped and for what reasons?
