Anniversary memories, a lost critic, and queer future multitudes of critical/cultural studies

This essay remembers Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies’ (CC/CS’s) queer engagement with the discipline. Its anniversary also conjures memories of queer critical/cultural scholar Daniel Brouwer, tragically lost in 2021. These intersecting memories amplify the archive of LGBTQ critical/cultural studies as resource for queer multitudes in the field to come, where traces of past and future imaginings might mobilize across and between generations of queer critics.
