\"\"<\/a>Happy\u00a0National Coming Out Day<\/a>\u00a0everyone and welcome to our latest news round-up.<\/p>\n

Thanks to those of you who have already emailed in response to Karl’s questions about a\u00a0new wave of queer cinema<\/a>. We will be publishing responses shortly. Please continue to join in the debate.<\/p>\n

There has been much activism in the international news this week. Our image above is of Jon Gnarr, Reykjavik’s self-styled ‘gayor’, coming out in solidarity with Pussy Riot during Pride. This week sees one member of Pussy Riot, Yekaterina Samutsevich\u00a0<\/a>getting a\u00a0surprise release. She, alongside global activists and allies, plan to continue the campaign to release all band members. In Serbia, in spite of heavy police attack, an indoor Pride event<\/a> was held, and a sit down protest on the street. An interesting article on the event has been written here<\/a>.\u00a0In more positive international news, South Africa has registered a flag<\/a> which formally represents the LGBTIA community.<\/p>\n

There is a call for papers over at Networking Knowledge<\/a>\u00a0for articles on the topic of (Im)Personal Desires: Pornography, Sexuality and Social Networks of Desire, with topics including the social and\/or sexual use of networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Grindr, gaydar, gaydargirls etc. and sexual identities as either marginalised\u00a0<\/em>and\/or commodified online. The deadline is October 19th for proposals.<\/p>\n

Kerstin Karlhuber’s new film project aims to interrogate so called ‘reparation therapy’ by Christian groups in the USA. Her film,\u00a0Camp Revelation<\/em>, asks what happens when Hollywood stereotypes about gender, race and sexuality take their most extreme form, in asking actors to not only deny, but to erase their sexuality.\u00a0There is a kickstarter you can donate to, to support her grassroots LGBT filmmaking\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
