Abstract "It is hard to imagine two more provocative topics than racism and sexuality. Each issue, on its own, can easily ignite a maelstrom of societal anxiety, debate, and discord. Yet, among all this noise there is an undeniable reckoning: racism and sexuality are inextricably and profoundly entwined. For many - scholars and others - the relationship between racism and sexuality is messy and complex, contentious and difficult, important and profound. Indeed, this relationship is so foundational that we should characterise it as not a 'relationship' at all, but two mutually defining sides of the same coin. To understand one, you must consider the other and - perhaps most importantly - meaningful and effective anti-racism efforts must consider sexuality as central part of anti-racism work. "The sex factor," proclaimed American writer and activist James Weldon Johnson in 1939, "is the root and also the route that must be explored in order to uncover the complex functions of polarized racial boundaries and conflict" (Paulin, 2012)"-- Provided by publisher.
