In this episode, we brought together two Cornell University Press authors in the hopes they would have a lively discussion and they certainly delivered. One was Christopher Ewing, author of the new book The Color of Desire: The Queer Politics of Race in the Federal Republic of Germany after 1970 and the other was Jake Newsome, author of Pink Triangle Legacies: Coming Out in the Shadow of the Holocaust.
Christopher Ewing is Assistant Professor at Purdue University. His research focuses on the intersections of queer history and the history of race in modern Germany. He has previously published in Journal of the History of Sexuality, Sexualities, Bulletin of the German Historical Institute, and Sexuality & Culture.
Jake Newsome is an award winning scholar of German and American LGBTQ+ history whose research and resources educate global audiences. He is the Founder and Director of the Pink Triangle Legacies Project, a grassroots initiative that honors the memory of the Nazis queer victims and carries on their legacy by fighting homophobia and transphobia today through education, empowerment, and advocacy. You can find him online at wjakenewsome.com.
