More about the book
Exploring the intersections of transnational black Latinx Caribbean immigrant queer life, the author introduces the concept of "faggotology," linking the erotic and divine through disreputable and excessive elements. The work combines theoretical analysis, memoir, and ethnography focused on Santería/Lucumí across various locations. This transformative study serves as a feminist pilgrimage, weaving together stories, theoretical insights, and expressive practices to honor voices from radical feminism and queer-of-color perspectives, creating a rich tapestry of cultural and spiritual narratives.
