NOTES
"A queer Black feminist debunks the myth of rainbow solidarity, repositioning Black and Latinx LGBTQ+ people at the forefront of queer pasts, presents, and futures"--
In The Rainbow Ain't Never Been Enuf, Black queer studies scholar Kaila Adia Story critiques mainstream LGBTQ+ movements for masking racism, transphobia, and neoliberalism behind a façade of unity. Blending theory, pop culture, and personal insight, Story exposes how queer liberation must confront white supremacy, misogyny, and anti-Blackness to be truly inclusive and transformative
