{"product_id":"9781350429680","title":"Rainbow Trap : Queer Lives, Classifications and the Dangers of Inclusion by Kevin Guyan","description":"Rainbow 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. This 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.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56312220811637,"sku":"9781350429680","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350429680.jpg?v=1762821064","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350429680","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
