Outrage

An eye-opening and essential look at the discrimination still faced by LGBTQIA+ people today, woven throughout with moving and jaw-dropping personal accounts, plus practical steps anyone can take to help change things. Complete equality for LGBTQIA+ people should be our benchmark. But despite massively increased visibility in mainstream life and culture, the queer community is facing unacceptable levels of prejudice and danger--from the rise in homophobic and transphobic violence to the rollback of hard-fought-for rights across the globe.

In this groundbreaking, compelling and highly readable book, writer and activist Ellen Jones exposes the discrimination queer people continue to face in all areas of life, from marriage to mental health, education to ageing, religion to sport and much more. In searing prose, punctuated with moving personal accounts, Jones sets out not only the issues but also practical actions that readers can take to create a more equal society, and highlights the trailblazers whose amazing work is already changing the world. Whether you are a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, an ally, or simply care about human rights and equality, Outrage is essential and illuminating reading.
