The Southern Queer Dance Archive-it collection curated by the Invisible Histories Project compiles digital artifacts related to Southern Queer Dance Events and Spaces in the Southeastern United States from 2007-2024. This collection covers a broad spectrum of queer dance events, not limited to Country Line Dance, Tango/Latin dance, Bucking, and club dancing. This collection aims to capture and preserve postings, videos, and websites for southern queer dance spaces and events as legislation in the United States forces many queer dance collectives to lose their official spaces and suspend public facing gatherings. In this collection, the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tenessee, Texas are each represented at least one time. The multitude of dances captured in this collection are merely a starting place, a snapshot, of the vibrant queer dance scene in the Southeastern United States. A broad overview of dances, spaces, and states, encourages a deeper dive into more specialized regional queer dances. A special thank you to IHP’s Fall 2024 Archive-it intern Becks Lipshultz for their work collecting, organizing, and curating the metadata for this collection.
