We are very pleased to announce the recent publication of Juan Carlos Mezo González's new book, Gay Print Culture: A Transnational History of North America (Duke University Press, 2026), which we at Southwest Humanities are proud to have indexed. In Gay Print Culture, Mezo González explores how gay liberation movements across Mexico, the United States, and Canada used print media (in particular, periodicals) to build community, spread political ideas, and visualize queer desires long before the internet made digital networking possible.

My beautiful writing companion, Louis, passed away exactly a month ago. I wrote much of my PhD dissertation and forthcoming book while he sat calmly on my lap or next to me. I am so grateful for all the light he brought into my life. 🤍
