Welcome to Volume I Issue I of QueerShots, the annual newsletter published by the students of Queer(ing) Film in the Women and Gender Studies Department of St. John Fisher College.

The campaign through its politics specifically targeted rightwing and political groups as well as socially embedded familial and institutional structures that exercise control over individuals through patriarchal regimes. The adverse reaction to the campaign revealed that collective aggression or violence can be used to impose majoritarian values and exert social control through the authority of public morality and everyday acts of moral …
