I Will Not Abandon You: Queer Women in Nazi Germany- Samuel C HunekeMillburn House, Central Campus A1.25Abstract: I Will Not Abandon You brings to life the experiences of queer women in fascist Germany. In his latest book, Samuel Huneke shows how love, queer resistance, and collective action survived under Nazi rule. Drawing on a decade of archival research, Huneke takes readers into a hidden world, from the wartime balls that lesbian activists continued to organize to the concentration camps where women accused of loving women were imprisoned. Following a diverse cast of characters, Huneke reveals both the oppression that queer women faced and how they resisted fascism in solidarity with one another. Arguing that this solidarity – which transcended race, class, and gender – offers a compelling alternative to today’s fractured identity politics, I Will Not Abandon You is a new history of queer life under fascism and a call to rethink the foundations of progressive politics today. |
