The contributors argue both racially and sexually marginalized groups all confront levels of racism and heterosexism that is practiced by the larger ethnic and sexual communities that use white heterosexuality as the norm to which all others are compared. They further argue that despite different constructions of race and ethnicity, there are similar themes for racialized groups that need to be explored.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis truly interdisciplinary and groundbreaking collection of essays contributes to queer theory and race studies by elaborating on the complexities present in the everyday experiences of queer people of color. Home and Community for Queer Men of Color: The Intersection of Race and Sexuality is a real stunner—rich, illuminating, often highly-personal, and a must-have addition to any serious intersectionality scholar’s library. Editors Jesús Gregorio Smith and C. Winter Han have put together a collection that will be cited and discussed for years to come! -- Jimmie Manning, University of Nevada, Reno\u003cbr\u003eHome and Community for Queer Men of Color examines the intersections of race and sexuality, and other related social locations, as they inform and are informed by contemporary problems germane to cultural and intercultural lived experience. The authors engage with an impressive range of shared and unique issues to show how home and community for queer men of color matter in today’s increasingly turbulent and uncertain times. The book’s chapters are accessible, interesting, challenging, and promising—key qualities that make the book appealing for use in the undergraduate and graduate courses taught in a diverse number of academic fields. Ultimately, Home and Community places stories and experiences commonly relegated to the margins (of society and the academy) front and center and compels us to think and feel in novel ways. -- Keith Berry, University of South Florida\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Home is Where the Heart is: Invisibility and Marginalization for Queer Men of Color\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJesus Gregorio Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: “Damn, I’m Dating a Lot of White Guys”: Gay Men’s Individual Narratives of Racial Sexual Orientation Development\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJason Crockett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: They Don’t Date Any Dark People: The Queer Case of Gay Racism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eC.
