Critical Articulations of Race, Gender, and Sexual Orientation
engages scholarly essays, poems, and creative writings that examine
the meanings of race, gender, and sexual orientation as
interlocking systems of oppression. Each chapter in this volume
critically, yet creatively, interrogates the notion of identity as
socially constructed, yet interconnected and shaped by cultural
associations, expanding on the idea that we as individuals live in
an identity matrix-our self-concept, experiences, and
interpretations originate or are developed from the culture in
which we are embedded. The shaping of an individual's identity,
communication, and worldview can be read, shaped, and understood
through life, art, popular culture, mass media, and cross-cultural
interactions, among other things. The aptness of this work lies in
its ability to provide a meaningful and creative space to analyze
identity and identity politics, highlighting the complexities of
identity formation in the twenty-first century.

Black LGBT Health in the United States: The Intersection of Race,
Gender, and Sexual Orientation focuses on the mental, physical, and
spiritual aspects of health, and considers both risk and resiliency
factors for the Black LGBT population. Contributors to this
collection intimately understand the associations between health
and intersectional anti-Black racism, heterosexism, homonegativity,
biphobia, transphobia, and social class. This collection fills a
gap in current scholarship by providing information about an array
of health issues like cancer, juvenile incarceration, and
depression that affect all subpopulations of Black LGBT people,
especially Black bisexual-identified women, Black
bisexual-identified men, and Black transgender men. This book is
recommended for readers interested in psychology, health, gender
studies, race studies, social work, and sociology.
