{"product_id":"rainbow-trap-1","title":"Rainbow Trap","description":"\u003cp\u003eRainbow Trap reveals how the fight for LGBTQ equalities in the UK is shaped – and constrained – by the classifications we encounter every day. Looking across six systems – the police and the recording of hate crimes; dating apps and digital desire; outness in the film and television industry; borders and LGBTQ asylum seekers; health and fitness activities; and DEI initiatives in the workplace – Rainbow Trap documents how inclusive interventions – such as new legislation, revamped diversity policies and tech fixes – have attempted to bring historically marginalized communities out of the shadows. Yet, as part of the bargain, LGBTQ people need to locate themselves in an ever-growing list of classifications, categories and labels to ‘make sense’ to the very systems they are seeking to access.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis requirement to be classified catches LGBTQ communities in a rainbow trap. Because when we look beyond the welcoming veneer of inclusive interventions, we uncover sorting processes that determine what LGBTQ lives are valued and what queer futures are possible.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kevin Guyan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57201811194236,"sku":"9781350631632","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0427\/9412\/3414\/files\/9781350429680.jpg?v=1743186410","url":"https:\/\/www.queerlit.co.uk\/products\/rainbow-trap-1","provider":"Queer Lit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
