In these lyrical and powerful essays, Thomas Glave draws on his
experiences as a politically committed, gay Jamaican American to
deliver a condemnation of the prejudices, hatreds, and inhumanities
that persist in the United States and elsewhere. Exposing the
hypocrisies of liberal multiculturalism, Glave offers instead a
politics of heterogeneity in which difference informs the theory
and practice of democracy. At the same time, he experiments with
language to provide a model of creative writing as a tool for
social change. From the death of black gay poet Essex Hemphill to
the revelations of abuse at Abu Ghraib, Glave puts forth an ethical
understanding of human rights to make vital connections across
nations, races, genders, and sexualities. Â Thomas Glave is
assistant professor of English at SUNY Binghamton. He is author of
Whose Song? and Other Stories.
