This collection aims to fill in the deep gaps of vital
contributions that have been erased from the sexuality field,
illuminating the historical and current work, strategies,
solutions, and thoughts from sexologists that have been excluded
until now. Historically, the US sexuality field has not included
the experiences and wisdom of racialized sexologists, educators,
therapists, or professionals. Instead, sexuality professionals have
been trained using a color-free narrative that does an injustice by
excluding their work as well as failing to offer a fuller
examination of how they have expanded the field and held it
accountable. The result of this wholesale erasure is that today
many sexuality professionals understand these contributions as
extra or tangential, and not part of the full vision and history of
the field of sexology. Highlighting the voices and experiences of
those who have been racialized and thus excluded, isolated, erased,
and yet have still emerged as vital contributors to the North
American sexuality field, this text offers a significant shift in
the way we learn and understand sexuality, one that is expansive
and committed to liberation, healing, equity, and justice. Divided
into three sections addressing safety, movement, and oral
narratives, the contributors offer insightful and provoking
chapters that discuss reproductive justice, LGBTQ themes, racial
and social justice, and gender, and disability justice,
demonstrating how these sexologists have been leaders, past and
present, in change and progression. This futuristic textbook
includes correction, engaged reading, and lesson plans which offers
community workers and trainers an opportunity to use the text in
their non-traditional learning environments. Creating a path
forward that many believed was impossible, this accessible book is
for all who work in and around sexuality. It welcomes inquiry and
celebrates our humanity for the worlds we are building now and for
the future.
