By Jake Allaband

Navigate the complex spectrum, be who you are, and find happiness with an attitude of positivity.    

 

The queer community has been through a lot, hasn't it?

 

The members of the LGBTQIA+ community saw the riots at Stonewall, they saw their happiness being questioned, and they saw their existence being denied any recognition. 

 

It's still tough to be gay in this day and age — you don't need a therapist to tell you that. 

 

A queer person goes through many different stages in their life, starting with the crisis of identity. 

 

Am I gay? Maybe I'm just bi. No, maybe it is just a phase like they all say it is. 

 

Then, they move into self-acceptance but have a fear of really coming out. 

 

What will my parents say? Will I get fired from my job for being gay? Maybe I should just keep it a secret for now. 

 

While keeping it a secret might be the easier choice at times, it's never the happiest one. 

 

But the LGBTQIA+ community are fighters. From the march from Stonewall to the shooting at Pulse, gay people continue to keep their chins up to fight for who they really are. 

 

That's called the ultimate resilience. 

 

Now, it's time to turn that fight into positivity. Affirmations are one of the best ways that queer people can really manifest a happier life. 

 

It's your turn to live the life you want and be the person you were born to be.

Introduction

Queerness is a human trait like no other: ever present, inerasable, and entirely invincible. – Adam Eli

Adam Eli is a unique character in the gay diaspora. He’s a writer and a fundamentalist Jewish man. He pens pieces for magazines and newspapers all over the American east coast. More impressively, he approaches the gay community with the same philosophy he learned growing up Jewish.

He explained it to podcast host Jameela Jamil on her show I Weigh. In the Jewish faith, Adam said, young children learn that Jewish people anywhere are responsible for Jewish people everywhere. If one Jewish person needed help, it was on every Jewish person to go and offer assistance. Even at his bar mitzvah, Adam was encouraged to pick a charity and give part of his cash gifts to Jewish people in need.

As a teenager, he watched this philosophy take shape when a synagogue shooting happened in the fall of 2018. While Adam kept tabs on the story, he felt overwhelmed by the swell of support from members of his own community. Hundreds upon hundreds of Jewish people converged in Pittsburgh to help the victims, their families, and the church.

Not long after, the leader of Chechnya started rounding up and killing gay people, men in particular. Adam was out at the time and nowhere near Chechnya, but he felt called to do something, anything, to help those men. He remembered the old saying about Jews being responsible for each other, and, as he describes it, made that sentence gayer.

He wondered, what could he do for gay Chechnyans from the US? He took to social media and found other people who felt the same fear he felt. He and a lot of other queer people believed that if this gay genocide could happen once, it could happen again much closer to home.

Adam knew that social media, when used the right way, could inspire people to act. He didn’t want people to gather out of anger or fear, but rather as a response to his call to action. After he saw one digital petition after another about the call for someone to do something in Chechnya, he posted, I want to march from Stonewall to the Russian Embassy on 96th Street.

The march struck a chord with a lot of people online, but even more joined in once they saw it in person. A gay-advocacy group for Russia called RUSA LGBT partnered with Adam to help promote the protest and together the two groups decided on a different route. They would go from the famous Stonewall bar to Trump Tower.

The group marched, picking up new participants as they went. They came to a halt in front of Trump Tower to show their defiance of autocratic leaders all over the world, even in America. That first protest led Adam to create Voices 4, a group that helped bring awareness to threats against queer people beyond developed, western countries.

Voices 4 did march to the Russian embassy after a beloved Chechnyan pop star went missing and was later announced dead. He’d been killed as part of Chechnya’s gay genocide. Fifty members of Voices 4 descended on the embassy, many holding hands with their partners, to demand the country’s leaders be held accountable, (J.J. Iovananne, 2019).

Adam also organized events for the victims of Pulse nightclub in Orlando and joined Gays Against Guns, (GAG), to protest violent crime. All of the protests Adam led, (up to the time of publication), focused on a positive, non-violent approach. He later went on to write the book The New Queer Conscience.

Basically, he explained on the podcast I Weigh, the book has a thesis statement, which is that queer people anywhere are responsible for queer people everywhere. And the book goes about proving that thesis statement or talking about that thesis by comparing by taking Jewish ideals and applying them to the queer community.

That same interview starts off with an interesting comment from Adam. He admits to Jameela that yes, he’s experienced some homophobia within the Jewish community. He even mentions, albeit quickly, that he was silenced and assaulted, but he quickly changes the subject.

However, it's not the story that I want to tell at this moment… The story I want to tell us is how I firmly believe that my Jewish ideals and background make me a stronger and better queer activist and wholer queer person, he says (Jamil J. 2021).

Adam made a choice about how to see himself - he chose to see himself as someone who is in a position to make a change. Even his headware is a pink kippah made of four pink triangles, the Nazi symbol made to mark homosexuals, which he puts on everyday.

This young writer experienced the incredible power that an individual can build up once they decide to stop seeing themselves as limited, as a victim, or as an oppressed person. He knew he could write well, so he used his writer’s voice to lift up other queer people. His Jewish faith taught him the importance of community, but it also taught him he was alone as a gay man. So, he made an effort to find his gay people and build up a second community.

It would have been easy for him to shrug and say,
