Pocket Change Collective is a series of small books with big ideas from today’s leading activists and artists.
In this installment, The New Queer Conscience, Voices4 Founder and LGBTQIA+ activist Adam Eli offers a candid and compassionate introduction to queer responsibility. Eli calls on his Jewish faith to underline how kindness and support within the queer community can lead to a stronger global consciousness. More importantly, he reassures us that we’re not alone. In fact, we never were. Because if you mess with one queer, you mess with us all.
“The new manifesto for how we as queer people could and should navigate the world. It’s the holding hand I never had—but wish I did.” (Troye Sivan, Golden Globe-nominated singer, songwriter, and actor)
“With the persistence of queerphobia all around the world, this book is absolutely necessary, even vital.” (Édouard Louis, internationally best-selling author of History of Violence)
“To Eli’s credit, all of the rules are rooted in considerations of conscience and kindness and, if observed, will make a better world—as will this book.” (Booklist starred review)
“A must-read that highlights the importance of radical empathy, community building, and solidarity.” (School Library Journal starred review)
