Violence Against Queer People

Race, Class, Gender, and the Persistence of Anti-LGBT Discrimination

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Offers the first investigation of anti-queer violence that focuses on the role played by race, class, and gender. Drawing on interviews with forty-seven victims of violence, Meyer shows that LGBT people encounter significantly different forms of violence - and perceive that violence quite differently - based on their race, class, and gender.
