Happy Pride Month! 🌈 At the Humanities Institute, we are proud to be a hub where q***r and trans scholarship can thrive all year long. Through our Q***r X Humanities initiative, faculty and students gain the opportunity engage in interdisciplinary collaboration and critical dialogue about LGBTQIA2S+ culture, history and politics.

For Pride Month, we’re revisiting a few books by writers from the Piper and ASU creative writing community:

The Porcupine of Truth by Bill Konigsberg
Postcolonial Love Poem by Natalie Diaz
To Name the Bigger Lie by Sarah Viren

Three very different books - a YA novel, a poetry collection, and a memoir-in-essays - each attentive to questions of identity, intimacy, language, and the stories we inherit.

Have you read any of these yet? Drop your favorite LGBTQ+ reads in the comments so we can keep building our summer TBR list.

Writing doesn't just express thought. It creates it!

In this clip, Simon Critchley flips the idea that writing expresses what’s already in our heads. He reflects on how voice and style aren’t something we already have fully formed, but something we build through writing, reading, and borrowing from the voices around us.

If you’re interested in finding your voice or maybe realizing it’s something you can actually create, join us at the upcoming writing studio kicking off on May 13. Register at https://asuevents.asu.edu/event/writing-studio-summer-2026-series?id=0
