Write an essay that thinks through your understanding of what is Queer Studies and respond to the following quote:

Where is the space in queer studies for a feminist who still believes that state sanctioned marriage is one of the most insidious forms of institutionalized racism? Sharon Holland.

You cannot use this quote in your essay, though. Explain what position the above statement takes by citing one of the assigned readings from class. Gay marriage has been upfront in mainstream struggles for same gender couples. How can LGBTQ Studies grapple with issue of race and gender when it comes to marriage?
