Queer Survival Quotes

“Drive us underground
We will always surface
Singing words you can never own
Because you don’t have the range to hear them.
Go ahead, take away our words,
We will birth a whole new language
You’ve been sending your armies for us since the beginning of time
But we were born for battle.
You wonder why we are still here?
You made us this strong.
Do you think getting rid of a word will silence us?
You’d have to ban them all.”
