Sorry, not sure why you just wrote that. Yep I’m an Aboriginal trans person and we have a number of academics who are Two-Spirit who are included in the list as their own opt-in. We’re not generally doing international but we are for the academics list.

We made this for us to celebrate queer Indigenous scholarship lies, but it also counters the many non-Indigenous queer and gender studies scholars that tell us that they can’t find the work of any IndigiQueers. Here's a few hundred citations.

We love your work. It’s always inspiring us.

Thanks heaps if you’ve read this far. I’m a queer Indigenous artist and making this has been the fucking joy of my life. Han and I did the music at the beginning of each podcast episode and I just love the whole thing. Honestly we all should be thinking about queer Indigenous creativity a lot more.

Some of the Queer As publications are here. This project has been part of the ARC Saving Lives program that we’ve been working on for the last 5 years. It’s been a joy to get to do the surveys, talk to people, and analyse the genius that is queer Indigenous creativity.

Our QueerTV project has been a dream featuring queer complexities onscreen. So many responses to the survey, and most importantly so many shows that we’re listing in the stream text videos that we’re including shortly. Pubs here, and the stats are kind of hilarious too!

An updating list of Indigenous queer creative practitioners/ thinkers. We don’t want our site to be a place where queer cultural work is mined/stolen by AI so we’re focusing on the makers themselves and links to their own sites where they control their means of display.

And also, yes. These people that want a police the boundaries in a completely disingenuous way are the same as anyone else policing a boundary.
