本研究探讨了拉丁裔酷儿和亚裔/太平洋岛民女性在女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别(LGBT)运动及其种族/民族社区中被边缘化的多种方式,涉及他们交叉的、从属的身份。通过对25名同性恋女性的深度访谈和对同性恋骄傲活动的人种学观察,本研究考察了受访女性在影响和塑造她们的经历和塑造她们的身份时,如何理解她们的重叠压迫。通过将柯林斯的“内外”概念与桑多瓦尔的“差异对立意识”概念结合起来,我断言,拉丁裔酷儿和亚洲/太平洋岛民女性在主流LGBT运动中经历的边缘化,主要是作为一种隐形功能,同时作为异化和赋权的来源,最终服务于挑战酷儿身份和政治的霸权观念。
This research explores the numerous ways queer Latinas and Asian/Pacific Islander women are marginalized in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) movement and their racial/ethnic communities in regards to their intersecting, subordinate identities. Through in-depth interviews with 25 queer identified women and ethnographic observation at Gay Pride events, this research examines how the women interviewed make sense of their overlapping oppressions as they affect and frame their experiences and shape their identities. By integrating Collins' notion of the outsider-within along with Sandoval's concept of differential oppositional consciousness, I assert that queer Latinas and Asian/Pacific Islander women experience marginality within the mainstream LGBT movement primarily as a function of invisibility that serves simultaneously as a source of alienation and empowerment, ultimately serving to challenge hegemonic notions of queer identity and politics.
