Hola, beautiful souls! 🌈🎭
Dive into Week 2 of “Queer History 101” with Tiffany as we journey through the poetic alleys of Spain, celebrating the genius of Federico Garcia Lorca. 🇪🇸✍️
Born in 1889, Lorca wasn’t just a poet; he was a revolution in Spanish literature. 📖✨ As part of the iconic Generation of ’27, he breathed life into words, leaving an indelible mark on art and culture. But beneath the verses, Lorca’s true identity—a proud gay man—remained veiled, often overshadowed by societal norms and censorship. 🌈🚫
With close ties to the legendary Salvador Dali 🎨, their bond, rich in letters and whispered tales, paints a picture of love, friendship, and defiance against societal expectations. 💞💌
Yet, Lorca’s brilliance was tragically dimmed in 1936, silenced for his identity and beliefs. 🖤🥀 Today, we reclaim his legacy, celebrating him not just as a literary icon but as a shining beacon for the LGBTQ+ community. 🌈🌟
Join us in honoring Lorca and countless others who dared to be true amidst adversity. 🌈❤️ Let’s ensure their stories are told, their voices heard, and their legacies celebrated. Until next time, keep turning the pages of history! 📚✨
