SEXUAL PROFILING & BLAQUEER FURTIVITY: Blaqueers on the Run.
- Authors
Wilson, T. Anansi
- Abstract
This article explores the concept of furtive Blackness and sexual profiling, focusing on the experiences of BlaQueer individuals. It discusses historical cases, such as William Dorsey Swann, who faced discrimination and criminalization due to their gender nonconforming identities. The article emphasizes the ongoing impact of discriminatory laws and the need for recognition and understanding of BlaQueer history. It also highlights the mistreatment and violence experienced by transgender individuals, particularly transwomen, during interactions with law enforcement. The text aims to shed light on the experiences of marginalized communities and the need to challenge discriminatory practices.
