Title

Interview with Richard Fung for the Queer Liberation Theory Project

Description

Richard Fung is an academic, writer, video maker, and has been involved in gay and queer activism for the past thirty years, including founding the group Gay Asians of Toronto in 1979. In 1984, Fung shot Orientations, a film that focused on gay and lesbian Asians, responding to the lack of representation of people of colour in activism and organizing. Rex versus Singh was an experimental film that looked at a speculative history around a real-life case of the crown versus a Sikh man, questioning how the intersections of race and homophobia played out. Fung discusses the value behind the fluidity of queer liberation. Interview conducted on 14 October 2011 by Dr. Nick Mulé.
