Gay Like Me: A Father Writes to His Son by Richie Jackson
1.0
this book is for HRC members who think Ellen and Rupaul are good role models. neoliberal, really reductive. multiple times he uses rhetoric and quotes directly from black liberation movements, and just applies the exact same thing to gayness?? like w.e.b. dubois, audre lorde, etc, and does the thing that white liberals constantly do — referencing a couple common ideas from black radical work and not engaging with their work as a whole or from any sort of radical perspective.
also repeatedly misuses more radical language like intersectionality and liberation. marriage equality is not??? gay liberation??????
