• Resumen

  • In this essay, we explore the hegemonic structures that reproduce the differences embedded in the material realities of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people of color. We read Fly Young Red's intersectional performance of “Throw that Boy P***y” as an embodied text that seeks to disrupt unchallenged and taken-for-granted norms, values, and beliefs to rearticulate and reimagine the potentiality of (black) queer world-making. We argue that quare studies must further interrogate complex and ambiguous reinforcements of hegemonic ideology that socially, politically, economically, and historically construct boundaries in queer communities of color across cultures.
