Whose pride?: an institutional ethnography on participating in Toronto’s Pride Parade

Hoxsey, Dann 18 December 2012 (has links)
This thesis investigates how an institutional coordination of civic policies and organizational processes within Pride Toronto were brought to bear on the activist group Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA) in their attempts to participate in the 2010, 2011, and 2012 Toronto Pride Parades. Utilizing an institutional ethnography (IE), I explore this issue in two key ways. First, by mapping a work-text-work sequence of QuAIA’s experience in applying to march in the 2010 Parade, I demonstrate how the application process was subject to social relations that extended beyond Toronto Pride. Second, through the elaboration of processing interchanges, I demonstrate how the experiences of QuAIA were hooked into a series of translocal relations via Pride Toronto’s funding relationship to the City of Toronto. These translocal relations working through the City of Toronto were themselves varied, from pro-Zionist pressure on individual City councilors, to an alignment with anti-tax and arguably homophobic interests on council. / Graduate

The floating city : carnival, Cape Town and the queering of space

Van der Wal, Ernst 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA (VA)(Visual Arts))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009. / In this thesis I examine the phenomenon of carnival for its corporeal and spatial expressions of fluid identity formations. The visual constitution of multiple gay/queer identities during carnival is commonly regarded as transgressive of the normative order that is ideologically and physically imbedded in the structure of city. I suggest, however, that the various local performances of homosexuality that are mobilised during the Cape Town Pride Parade can be interpreted as simultaneous reinforcements and contestations of sexual stereotypes. By tracing discursive and spatial shifts that have occurred within the South African sexual landscape, I demonstrate how this carnival both transgresses and bolsters heteronormativity. In addition, I explore how race and gender play decisive roles in the constitution of a homonormative gay identity, and investigate how these male, white homonormative assumptions are challenged by a minority of black and lesbian participants. In the process of deconstruction, I also reveal how the interaction between spectator and carnival participant blurs binary constructs of stasis/mobility, subject/object, private/public, and 'normal'/'abnormal'.

[pt] MINORIAS E DISCURSO NA ESFERA PÚBLICA DIGITAL: O CASO DA PARADA GAY / [en] MINORITIES AND DISCOURSE IN THE DIGITAL PUBLIC SPHERE: THE GAY PARADE CASE

JULIANA DEPINE ALVES GUIMARAES 30 November 2021 (has links)
[pt] A dissertação dedica-se a investigar e compreender as opiniões e interpretações elaboradas por diversos segmentos sociais a respeito dos temas suscitados pela Parada do Orgulho LGBT, considerando que o evento propõe um agendamento de questões caras às minorias sexuais na sociedade. O ambiente de investigação foi a Internet e o foco recaiu sobre os discursos a respeito da Parada do Orgulho LGBT da cidade de São Paulo de 2011, presentes em blogs pessoais e sites de notícias. À luz de teorias oriundas da Análise do Discurso, identificaram-se padrões, referentes aos temas mais recorrentes suscitados pela manifestação e às estratégias discursivas relativas a cada tema. Neste processo, o estudo estipulou três categorias de análise, relativas às discussões sobre a pertinência do evento, aos direitos civis de minorias sexuais e ao juízo moral – biológico e religioso – sobre sexualidades não heteronormativas. / [en] The study aims to investigate the opinions and interpretations of readers s comments about the Parada do Orgulho LGBT (LGBT Pride Parade), considering that the event proposes an agenda for sexual minorities demands.
