Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution by Liam Warfield, Walter Crasshole, and Yony Leyser is an oral and visual history of the Queercore movement, an explosive subculture that emerged as a rebellion against both mainstream gay and straight societies. Edited by Liam Warfield, Walter Crasshole, and Yony Leyser, this book traces the scene from its "fabricated" origins in Toronto and San Francisco to its status as a significant revolution. Through exclusive firsthand interviews with key figures such as Bruce LaBruce, Kathleen Hanna, and John Waters, the book documents the movement's history, its art, zines, and films, and its connection to the riot grrrl scene. The narrative is complemented by a "treasure trove" of previously unseen photographs and reprinted zines, making it a crucial resource for understanding this radical intersection of queer politics and punk culture.
