"Queers Read This" (also stylized "QUEERS READ THIS!") is an anonymously written essay about queer identity. It was originally circulated by members of Queer Nation as a pamphlet at the June 1990 New York Gay Pride Parade, and is generally understood as the group's manifesto.
The essay characterizes queerness as being based on social situation and action, in contrast to gay and lesbian identity which are considered to be based on "natural" or inherent characteristics. Across multiple sections which use various voices and tones, it lays out a rationale for the reappropriation of the term queer and suggests that to be queer is to constantly fight against oppression.
"Queers Read This" has continued to receive academic attention, and is widely understood as one of the earliest articulations of queer activism and queer theory. Queer theory later elaborated on many of the concepts initially articulated in the essay. Some scholars have critiqued it for criticizing heterosexuality rather than heteronormativity.
