Gay Men’s Book Club
Skip to sidebar
A table of gay men with diverse ages, races and backgrounds gather in a Los Angeles bookstore to discuss Olufemi O. Taiwo’s book Elite Capture and the co-opting of identity politics (queerness especially) by hegemony. What follows is an unscripted conversation between the participants, including Matthew Lax as facilitator alongside founding member of the Radical Faeries, and Jungian psychologist, Dr. Don Kilhefner as co-facilitator.
