One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I created Queering The Map, and community generated mapping project that geolocates queer moments, memories and histories in relation to physical space. The project was started in May 2017, and as of writing this hold over 20 000 stories of queer existence and resistance, on every continent on earth and in over 10 languages. You can check out the project at www.queeringthemap.com, and read more about it here:
