Brooks analyzes families, educational systems, healthcare industries, and religious spaces as institutions which can perpetuate and transform the political and cultural beliefs and attitudes that engender violence towards LGBT Black and Latinx people. Brooks highlights mental health activism and alternatives to the prison industrial complex to illustrate the effects of violence on these communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eEveryday Violence is just as powerful as it is timely! Brooks’ work provides a refreshing perspective by giving voice to Black and Latinx LGBTQ survivors and activists working to promote equality and justice, while also highlighting the role that structural racism, homophobia, transphobia, and discrimination play in not only allowing, but also encouraging this violence to perpetuate. Throughout, Brooks emphasizes many uncomfortable truths – such as the reappropriation of the BLM, and discrimination that Black and Latinx LGBTQ people face both within communities of color and LGBTQ communities – and provides innovative and policy driven solutions to reduce this violence. Importantly, this book is not only about the violence Black and Latinx LGBTQ people experience, but also about community, resiliency, the fight for equality, and in many cases, the fight for basic survival.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Angelique C.
