This edited volume examines how and where gay men of color find “home” and what kind of home they find, how they make sense of race and sexuality, and how their experiences reflect what it means to be “raced” and “sexed” in America. 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.

Chong-suk Han is associate professor of sociology at Middlebury College. Jesús Gregorio Smith is assistant professor of ethnic studies at Lawrence University and Associated Colleges of the Midwest (ACM) Andrew W. Mellon Fellow.
