In our conversation with Renan Quinalha, we discussed the importance of telling the story of the LGBTI+ movement, covering important international episodes and its consolidation in Brazil. The relationship between the military dictatorship, and later the current authoritarianism, and the LGBTI+ population was also one of the topics discussed, as well as the relationship of this movement with the left, especially the Marxist left. Finally, Renan brought us what he believes to be the current challenges of the LGBTI+ movement and its position regarding identitarianism.
