What is the nature of gay men of color’s experience of racism in Canada, and how do these men cope with it? This book seeks to answer this question by highlighting the embeddedness of racism in gay men’s communities and by challenging the disease narrative about gay men of color. Drawing on critical race theory (CRT), racism is defined here as the expression of race prejudice and social and institutional power, which result in a system of power and privilege for White people and discrimination and oppression for people racialized as non-White (i.e., people of color; Feagin & McKinney, 2003). In short, the book questions the lack of a concerted effort to address racism head on.
