ABSTRACT

Inspired by a desire for queerness on the horizon, we use critical autoethnography to share narratives of times when we have experienced resistance to our desires and performances of queerness and gender futurity, particularly as they happen in our participation and leadership in the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (GLBTQ) Communication Studies Division of the National Communication Studies Association. We not only argue for the importance of queerness and gender futurity but also collaborate as an important tool to start to imagine other possibilities.
