Summary

Part of a series of photobooks on LGBTQ communities around the world, a portrait of a group of queer East Africans who have fled unimaginable abuse in their homeland for the United States. With an introduction by journalist Jacob Kushner and a foreword by Ugandan queer activist Ruth Muganzi, this book is a record of LGBTQ forced migration, following this community from its darkest moments to an uncertain future. At a time of great uncertainty for both LGBTQ and refugee rights, this work illuminates the stakes for those at the center of a firestorm. --Adapted from publisher description.
