OverviewGenderqueer 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 Gender is 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.

It foregrounds the often-invisible lives of nonbinary and transmasculine people of colour, contributing in an innovative way to decolonising, anti-racist, intersectional, and queer knowledge, politics, and culture.""--Surya Monro ""author of Bisexuality: Identities, Politics, and Theories"" ""My Race is My Gender is a provocation and an invitation to consider how nonbinary life and thought could be put into the service of antiracist theory and organizing. Obliterating the binary between literature and criticism, this collection works across multiple genres, genealogies, geographies, scenes, forms, and fields of inquiry to make evident the ways nonbinarity can disarticulate, decipher, and decolonize the dominant ideology and infrastructure of racialized gender. A critical intervention and a pleasure to read and think with!""--C.
