At Queer News Tonight we are committed to bring you the most interesting authors, books, artists, photographers and more to the LGBTQ community. Tonight we bring you 'Our Light Through Darkness' honoring New York's queer community.
Impulse Group New York and photographer/filmmaker LaQuann Dawson have collaborated to present Our Light Through Darkness, a "love letter to the intricate experiences of New York City's vibrant queer community." This anthology of photography, essays, erotica, illustrations, and poetry from queer artists hopes to be a healing force in such a heavy time. Dey Armbruister, Impulse Group New York’s director of advocacy said "2020 has been a year of much uncertainty and dismay. We’ve witnessed thousands of lives lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic, countless Black lives — including those within our LGBTQIA+ community — being taken due to police brutality and systemic racism, and the fall of our economy, with millions struggling to keep afloat after business closures and job losses. In the spirit of our year’s theme of 'transparency," we challenged the community to exude authenticity through owning one’s truths, unique qualities, and identities. Our Light Through Darkness personifies these truths as being a form of resistance through even the darkest hour. This is a visual manifesto for queer liberation, acceptance, and infinite visibility. This is our love letter to you." Everyone at Queer News Tonight could not agree more and encourage you to visit their social media pages for complete details.
