Abstract: | Genderqueer and nonbinary people of color often experience increased marginalization, belonging to an ethnic group that seldom recognizes their gender identity and a queer community that subscribes to white norms. Yet for this very reason, they have a lot to teach about how racial, sexual, and gender identities intersect. Their experiences of challenging social boundaries demonstrate how queer communities can become more inclusive and how the recognition of nonbinary genders can be an anti-racist practice. My Race is My Genderis the first anthology by nonbinary writers of color to include photography and visual portraits, centering their everyday experiences of negotiating intersectional identities. While informed by queer theory and critical race theory, the authors share their personal stories in accessible language.Bringing together Black, Indigenous, Latine, and Asian perspectives, its six contributors present an intergenerational look at what it means to belong to marginalized queer communities in the U.S. and feel solidarity with a global majority at the same time. They also provide useful insights into how genderqueer and nonbinary activism can both energize and be fueled by such racial justice movements as Black Lives Matter |
| "For every person, the embodied fact and experiential truth is, my race is my gender. This is the meaning of intersectionality, a Black feminist understanding of identity that is foundational to critical race theory, and it is intimately explored in life writing and photography in My Race is My Gender: Portraits of Nonbinary People of Color. Nonbinary, genderqueer, gender fluid, agender, and androgynous forms of identity and expression can present challenges to social binaries that are as unique as individuals themselves, as we have learned from several large anthologies by nonbinary writers published in recent years. One of the first nonbinary collections to illustrate memoir with photographic portraits, My Race is My Gender is also one of the first to center Black, Indigenous, Latine, and Asian perspectives, with its six contributors presenting an intergenerational look at what it means to belong to marginalized queer communities in the U.S. and feel solidarity with a global majority at the same time. People of color who are nonbinary in multiple ways show us that pursuing gender freedom and resisting racism are one in the same movement, and that learning to recognize nonbinary genders can also be an antiracist practice"-- |
