7 
Facts 
Of  
LGBT  
Existence  

 
 
A word from your editor. 
 
Conforming to cishet's idea of proper, correct, and acceptable LGBT 
existence, is becoming more and more commonplace.  
But what does this do? This isn't just conforming to being 
"nonthreatening" to the status quo, but also conforming to capitalism 
and therefore, allowing for our exploitation. 
Not only will this hurt the vast majority of LGBT people (as most of 
us are working class) 
But this will only further the oppression of the ones who cannot 
conform.  
 
 
what are you scared of?  
Not being accepted?  
You already aren't.

Gay and Trans liberation.  
When was the last time, when you’re hanging out at the Q 
center or hanging out at your school and college’s LGBT union or 
GSA, and you saw the word “Liberation”? 
Not much. Its been 44 years since Dawson’s “Gay Liberation: 
A socialist perspective.” Said pamphlet is just one example of 
the LGBT community seeking not “acceptance” or tolerance, but 
liberation. 
Liberation is defined, by Oxford, as:  

 
Oppression! Can we not admit that we are oppressed? Most would 
say LGBT people are a class because of our shared oppression 
(prolonged cruel or unjust treatment.) Then why are we seeking out  
Acceptance? 

 
Do we want to be adequate? Do we want to be suitable? Do we 
want to be admitted into a group of our oppressors? Is that what we 
seek? An oppressor will oppress without anything to stop them. Merely 
seeking acceptance, seeking to join the class as “suitable” will not 
stop said oppressors. And who will they continue to oppress, you might 
ask? Those who are not suitable!  
Liberation, intersectionality, through revolution, is the only 
way we will ever truly free ourselves from oppression! 
Bring back liberation! Toss out those ideas of acceptance and 
tolerance, bring back your voice! Don’t be scared to be the loud, 
open, bold and visible gays and trans people. Ones that discuss their 
oppression without self-censoring for the sake of our oppressor’s 
feelings.  
 
 Most importantly, remember:  
You are not at fault of your own oppression and discrimination. 
Even if you are loud! Even if you do not pass as cisgender! Even if 
you are the butchest dyke to ever have lived! Even if you are 
effeminate and unwilling to change your ways! Even if you choose not 
to be what the oppressors ask of you. You are not at fault. We are not 
at fault and you must work, will all your might, to make sure that we 
have each other! 
Bring back the liberation!

 Interview: 
Google Fred Hampton 

 
Art by Andy Roloff (Insta: rats.on.email) 
- What type of music do you make? 
Google Fred Hampton is a punky mix whatever we’re all vibing to, and 
that’s often putting our activism into music, the growing fights 
against capitalism and authoritarianism for the safety of our future 
are a huge inspiration to us all, and by putting it into music, we can 
make our voices heard in a whole different way. We call this 
Laborcore. 
- Where can you be found? 
We can we found on Instagram (@Google_Fred_Hampton) and we will be 
playing a show at @TrashHallPDX on December 13th, with a whole bunch 
of amazing local bands. 
 
 
 
 - Where can your music be found?  
We have an awful demo up now on Bandcamp  
(https://googlefredhampton.bandcamp.com/album/shitdicks-come-in-threes
-demo) and YouTube 
(https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWwqX_D0zwQYo2424Pjsk4QE_nzJvC
pfc) but more music is in the process of being made, and being 
recorded better 
- The topic of this issue is LGBT Liberation. What is your 
relationship to this concept? How do you mean to aid in this 
issue? 
Pretty much everyone in our band is queer and/or trans and we seek to 
kick all transphobic, homophobic, toxicly masculine pieces of shit out 
of this scene, and out of this city. We will fight for LGBT liberation 
by any means necessary. 
- Thoughts on class war? (This question comes from the artist above, 
Andy) 
The 'class war' is already happening every day and we have a 
responsibility to protect poor and working class people, and to fight 
for our own liberation.

LGBT liberation within schools: Beyond the GSA 

Middle and highschools, including alternative schools, MUST have GSA. 

This is the most basic way to help LGBT students. This GSA must be 
active, official and organized, and should have a way to communicate 
with the entire student body (through email or social media) This is 
not something that should be optional within the schools, if a school 
doesn’t have a GSA (or similar group or club) the school is failing 
and harming LGBT students. 
 
That being said, a GSA isn’t always very useful and we (as youth, 
educators, parents, and as a community) must start to look past the 
passivity and support group style of LGBT organizing in schools. 
 
I challenge all of us, to instead turn the GSA into a new concept,The 
LGBT youth advocacy group. Within every school, should be a club or 
group of students, dedicated to active advocacy of LGBT youth. 
Advocacy within both the school community and the general community.  
 
These clubs should: 
 
- Have a regular collection of information on community resources 
- Organize or find resources that the community is lacking 
- Offer supportive space for LGBT youth within the school community 
- Get youth actively involved in the community, at community 
events, and allow for collectivising for liberation 
- Allow for group advocacy for LGBT liberation and rights, for both 
the individual LGBT student, and for the class of LGBT students.  
- Have connections with other groups in other schools and districts 
for the above.  
 
REMEMBER:  
As a group, you have much more power against oppressors. One student 
cannot convince a school board, 15 students from every middle and 
highschool in the district can. Group organizing, and the unionizing 
of LGBT students is the only way to help LGBT students.
