DYKE II - She's Back

What's more punk than a dyke? As some of the most powerful people in the world try to turn queer and trans people, women, and people of colour into political playthings, punks fight back, make art, and build community in protest and resistance – an indignant declaration of endurance. For QT's second annual Dyke issue, we sought work that considers the complexity of being a dyke, and connections to punk scenes, art, aesthetics, politics, and organizing. A history of defiance has established dykes as the backbone of queer communities, and in a world gone to shit politically, who couldn't use a little anarchy?
