In Everyday Violence against Black and Latinx LGBT Communities,
Siobhan Brooks argues that hate crimes and violence against Black
and Latinx LGBT people are the products of institutions and
ideologies that exist both outside and inside of Black and Latinx
communities. Brooks analyzes families, educational systems,
healthcare industries, and religious spaces as institutions that
can perpetuate and transform the political and cultural beliefs and
attitudes that engender violence toward LGBT Black and Latinx
people.

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.
