During the 2010s in Turkey, LGBTQ activists, groups, and
individuals persisted against social, political, and legal
adversity. Erasure during the Gezi Park Protests in 2013, a Pride
parade ban in Istanbul in 2016, and indefinite ban on all LGBTQ
events in Ankara in 2017 directly aimed at ending the activities,
visibility, and existence of LGBTQ organization in the two biggest
cities in Turkey. This work examines the ways in which LGBTQ
activists engaged in talkback against these restrictions that
impacted the lives of LGBTQ individuals and how said individuals
endured such adversity. Focusing on the elements of discourse used
by LGBTQ activists, this work argues oppositional discourses need
to address as well as remedy the various elements of normative
discourses-constructions of space, time, and affect-in order to be
deemed a talkback, instead of merely perpetuating the normativities
of oppressive discourses.
