Winder for a book talk and signing of Shameless: The Making of Black Gay Identities in L.A. Description How young Black queer men in Los Angeles reject stigma and stereotypes and instead find pride in their racial and sexual identities Shameless is an in-depth exploration of the ways that young Black gay men in Los Angeles come together to learn how to navigate racial and sexual stigma in everyday interactions. Based on 4 years of intensive ethnographic fieldwork resulting in observations with over 200 young men in a Los Angeles community health organization, in-depth interviews with self-identified Black queer men, observations with gay kinship families, and media content analysis, Terrell J. A. Winder paints a full picture of the socialization and stigma negotiations of young Black gay men. He explains how traditional strategies like passing and covering can become untenable and ineffective for young Black gay men dealing with multiple stigmas simultaneously, who are looking to experience their identities with a sense of pride, rather than as a source of shame. About the Author Terrell J. A. Winder is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. An urban ethnographer, Winder’s research areas include race & ethnicity, sexuality & sexual health, qualitative research methods, and education. He is currently completing a book manuscript tentatively titled, Unspoiling Identity: How Black Gay Men Learn to Overcome Stigma. In this book, he examines stigma response processes among stigmatized populations negotiating more than one stigma simultaneously. His research on the effect of religion on sexual and racial identity was published in Qualitative Sociology. Winder’s health projects on the impact of HIV on Black men who have sex with men have been published in AIDS Patient Care & STDs, the Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities, and the Journal of Medical Internet Research. Dr. Winder received his B.A. in Comparative Ethnic Studies from Columbia University and his Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of California, Los Angeles.
