This story is not new. Black queer, transgender, and gender nonconforming  people in America are bearers of narratives of struggle and triumph despite the ways intimates and  strangers have attempted to force us to  silence our sexual desires.  Our stories, like our lives, are complex, bountiful, profound, disappointing, hopeful, varied, and often disregarded. We have always been here. Black queer, transgender, and gender nonconforming people loved and fucked on some racist master's plantation. We wrote theories debunking white racial supremacist ideology. We, too, were architects of Black liberation, women's justice, antiwar movements, and the Black liberation, women's justice, antiwar movements, and the Black arts. We are the unnamed black sisters, brothers, and nonbinary people who lived queer theory before it was popular among those in white academe.
