THE NEW QUEER CONSCIENCE

This short and informative audiobook is the latest from the Pocket Change Collective, a series of small books by artists and activists exploring politics and social justice. In a warm and conversational tone, author and narrator Adam Eli lays out a framework for a new generation of queer activism based on kindness, radical empathy, and community responsiblity. Drawing on the tenets of his Jewish faith and reflecting on his own privilege within the queer community as a white, cis, gay man, he advocates for building inclusive queer movements and affirms that queer people anywhere are responsbile for queer people everywhere. His voice is often infused with humor, and his lively, impassioned narration adds a lot of life and interest to this short but engrossing audiobook.
