Dangerous Liaisons: Blacks, Gays, and the Struggle for Equality

Brandt, Eric
Jun 01, 1999
Many gays and lesbians have suffered from oppression in the United States; so have many African Americans. But their mutual suffering has not necessarily led to sympathy and collaboration. In this groundbreaking collection of essays on the intersection of race and sexuality, leading minds from both communities write from the premise that this division is counterproductive in combating both racism and homophobia. Contributors include Henry Louis Gates Jr., Audre Lorde, Cornel West, and Samuel Delany.
