Homonationalism and pride season

It's pride season in Europe, and homonationalism is an issue at several of the events. For the story on Judith Butler's sensible rejection of the courage prize at this year's Christopher Street Day (CSD) in Berlin, see SUSPECT's article here. In Oslo, the pride parade is disappointingly going to be held in Greenland, effectively to address the alleged negative attitudes towards homosexuals in this multicultural neighbourhood. I've written with Annika Rodriguez on this a few months back and am also commenting on it in Morgenbladet this weekend. Sindre Bangstad has also made some thoughtful comments in Klassekampen this monday. For a deeper analysis of the problem starting from the German situation, have a look at Jin Haritaworn's work, which has been very inspirational for my understanding as well.
