Reviews with content warning for Antisemitism - The New Queer Conscience

“Queer people anywhere are responsible for queer people everywhere” is the rallying cry of this short but powerful book. Highly recommend that folks within the queer community and allies of the community give this a read for definitive steps to take and think through as this battle continues to get tougher.

I liked the way this short book was organized and the acknowledgement of privilege, but there was nothing stated in here that challenged my own thinking. I could see this potentially being useful for allies of the queer community.

Another reason why the future gives me hope. Dissecting privilege and the different layers. Plus an Orthodox Jewish child growing up in a family that allowed him to be who he was, although they wanted it hidden from any outsiders. I really enjoy this series.

📖 The New Queer Conscience by Adam Eli Book Review 📖

“Queer people anywhere are responsible for queer people everywhere. After all, wouldn’t you want someone to fight for you?” - Adam Eli.

4th book of January 2022 and 4th of the year:

This was a re-read after being gifted the physical copy, and, once again, I loved it! The social commentary and discussions about what’s going on in the world, and the messages and themes of helping, uplifting, and fighting for and beside each other are so important and written out so well and so thoroughly, with the author giving exact steps as to how and why we should do these things and how none of us are free and safe until all of us are free and safe. The audiobook for it is also done beautifully. I easily gave it five stars again, highlighted/underlined everything, cried when reading it, and highly recommend that absolutely everyone pick it up! This is definitely a book that I will return to again and again. TWs for antisemitism, bullying, body shaming, death, hate crimes, gun violence, violence, homophobia, transphobia, murder, abuse, police brutality, racism, shootings, xenophobia, Islamophobia, and outing📚🎧💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

5/5 Stars. I’m trying to read more nonfiction and these pocket change collection books are the perfect place to start. This brilliant short nonfiction book dives into what it really means to show up for your community and other communities you want to be an ally to. I recommend this to anyone and everyone!

This short book really packed a lot of punch. I liked the way queer erasure and privilege were discussed. I didn't like that the queer acronym included an A for ally.

Favorite quote: "No one queer experience is more valid than another."
