Queer Tango Futures: Dancing for Change in a Post-Covid World is a collection of articles, essays and artworks created by dancers for dancers with contributions in both English and Spanish. This collection is not confined to the written word but includes a striking collection of artworks ranging in styles. Like all specialists, queer tango dancers have a range of views as to precisely “what queer tango is”, but most will agree it is danced with an overt political agenda. When they dance, queer tangeur@s are trying to change the world. At the very least, they are asserting vibrant alternatives to tired heterosexist, tango norms (which are themselves changing!) and what can happen on the dancefloor can happen in the wider world. The publication features their visions for the futures of queer tango.

The organisers of the Queer Tango Salons, a two day seminar in London (2017), had it to set about breaking down two kinds of barriers: the barriers between academics and dance activists; and the barriers between using language as a means to consider, explore and answer questions and using dance or movement to address such issues.
