Q & A: Queer in Asian America (1998) became a canonical work in Asian American and queer studies. This new volume is not a sequel or update but an entirely new collection shaped by the political and cultural advances of queer Asian North American communities. Artists, activists, organizers, writers, poets and scholars show how sexuality intertwines with race, class, gender and ethnicity. Sections address activism, radicalism and social justice; changing meanings of Asian-ness and queerness in the media; queerness in relation to settler colonialism and diaspora; and bodies, health, disability, gender transition, death, healing and resilience.
