Midterm: Rough Outline

      Bayleigh and I will be working together to create a zine. Integrating different mediums and others’ work into one project to communicate a message seems the best (and most enjoyable) way to express the great diversity even within the LGBT community. Bayleigh and I both have an interest in zine culture, so hopefully our enthusiasm will help us create an outstanding project.
       Our audience, outside this class, will probably be others within the community who maybe haven’t studied history and society and those without. This may change as we work through ideas and create material for the project.
       Hopefully, we can find ways to encourage thought about “LGBT” and people’s self-identification, experiences, and differences. 
       Through essays/analyses, poems, lyrics, images, and possibly interviews, we will be able to give a broader idea of the varied definitions of LGBT than if we worked solely with words. Borrowed and original material will help us define and problematize definitions of what it means to be LGBT. If possible, we will try to include work and and interviews from many people to represent a diverse group. 
       We haven’t narrowed our focus to specific points yet, but we plan to in the following week.
