During the 2010s in Turkey, LGBTQ activists, groups, and individuals persisted against social, political, and legal adversity. Erasure during the Gezi Park Protests in 2013, a Pride parade ban in Istanbul in 2016, and an indefinite ban on all LGBTQ events in Ankara in 2017 directly aimed at ending the activities, visibility, and existence of LGBTQ organizations in the two biggest cities in Turkey. This book examines the ways in which LGBTQ activists engaged in talkback against restrictions that impacted the lives of LGBTQ individuals and how said individuals endured such adversity. Focusing on the elements of discourses used by LGBTQ activists, this work argues that oppositional discourses need to address as well as remedy the various elements of normative discourses-constructions of space, time, and affect-in order to be deemed a talkback, instead of merely perpetuating the normativities of oppressive discourses. Ali E. Erol is an Assistant Professor in the Communication Department at Boston College, USA. His research on the intersections of the politics of desire, sexuality, and space have previously been published in International Journal of Communication, Sexualities Journal, Investigaciones Feministas, KAOSQ+, and others.
