Description
An inside look at Black LGBTQ college students and their experiences Black and Queer on
Campus offers an inside look at what life is like for LGBTQ college students on campuses across
the United States. Michael P. Jeffries shows that Black and queer college students often struggle
to find safe spaces and a sense of belonging when they arrive on campus at both predominantly
white institutions and historically black colleges and universities. Many report that in predominantly
white queer social spaces, they feel unwelcome and pressured to temper their criticisms of racism
amongst their white peers. Conversely, in predominantly straight Black social spaces, they feel
ignored or pressured to minimize their queer identity in order to be accepted. This fraught dynamic
has an impact on Black LGBTQ students in higher education, as they experience different forms of
marginalization at the intersection of their race, gender, and sexuality.Drawing on interviews with
students from over a dozen colleges, Jeffries provides a new, much-needed perspective on the
specific challenges Black LGBTQ students face and the ways they overcome them. We learn
through these intimate portraits that despite the gains of the LGBTQ rights movement, many of the
most harmful stereotypes and threats to black queer safety continue to haunt this generation of
students. We also learn how students build queer identities. The traditional narrative of “coming
out” does not fit most of these students, rather, Jeffries describes a more gradual transition to
queer acceptance and pride.Black and Queer on Campus sheds light on the oft-hidden lives of
Black LGBTQ students, and how educational institutions can better serve them. It also highlights
the quiet beauty and joy of Black queer social life, and the bonds of friendship that sustain the
students and fuel their imagination.
