Tomorrow, I'll be speaking at SESC in São Paulo for their "Queer Cartographies" project, which itself is part of their Actions for Citizenship lecture series. Will be great to connect with this intellectual community as we discuss queer nightlife. www.sescsp.org.br/programacao/... #sociology

Queer in Vancouver. Gay in Texas. LGBTQ+ identity labels aren’t fixed: they shift across geography, family, and community. Recent sociological research from Andy Holmes & @aminghaziani.bsky.social in @sociusjournal.bsky.social explores why. Check it out here: 🔗 bit.ly/46IZcIq 🔗

Congrats to my grad student @alyypatel.bsky.social on her article "Re-theorizing the Sexual Minority Closet" in Canadian Review of Sociology. How can the closet be a source of violence, esp. for multiply marginalized groups? Find out here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... #sociology

Long Live Queer Nightlife is the review of the week! “Like the best pop-up parties, the book conveys the evanescent qualities of queer joy. In what could have been a dour litany of lament and loss, Ghaziani finds creativity, humor, and perseverance.”#sociology www.choice360.org/choice-pick/...

For @macleans.bsky.social, Long Live Queer Nightlife author @aminghaziani.bsky.social shows that in order to have more vibrant cities, we must protect queer nightlife spaces and treat them more like museums and heritage buildings:

@anthrofuentes.bsky.social @aminghaziani.bsky.social

Sparking and shaping public conversations about social issues by making sociology and social science research clear, engaging, even vivacious? Co-editor @aminghaziani.bsky.social’s new piece in @macleans.bsky.social is a masterclass in @contexts.org’s 4 Rs: rigorous, readable, relevant, and rad!

Should gay bars be reclassified as cultural institutions rather than mere entertainment venues to prevent their decline? In Germany, that reclassification has come with real protections, writes @aminghaziani.bsky.social in @macleans.bsky.social. macleans.ca/society/how-...

Founded in 1905, @macleans.bsky.social is Canada's premier current affairs magazine, compared w/ The New Yorker, Atlantic, Newsweek. It's been a dream to publish in it--and I finally did!

Find the courage to be disliked. That was my advice to Jonathan Van Ness when they invited me on the Getting Curious podcast to talk about my book, Long Live Queer Nightlife.
