Queer A.F.

Queer A.F. Nonprofit published in the U.K. with slogan, “We help you understand the LGBTQIA+ world and support queer creatives to change the media.”

Queer A.F. writes: “For too long, the media has been driven by short term, revenue-led incentives. The beautiful spectrum of the queer community has been sidelined in the pursuit of clicks. The diversity of those who write our stories has barely changed. We’re misrepresented, by an industry that is fundamentally broken. Advertising-based media models are struggling. Journalists chase divisive content options to deliver for adverts, not the audience. The situation is getting worse. QueerAF is going to revolutionize the way in which LGBTQIA+ voices are heard and flourish. Our community-led platform’s editorial decisions are in the hands of readers, not advertisers.

Queer A.F. Values

1. Queer creators should be paid for their work.
2. LGBTQIA+ information should not be a luxury.
3. Putting the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people above all else is the best way to make an impact with queer media.
4. Our community and members are our most valuable editors, not gatekeepers.
5. Every queer story (must) count.
