Drawing on the Ghanaian philosopher Kwame Gyekye's notion of ";amphibious personhood,"; Kwame Edwin Otu argues that sasso embody and articulate amphibious subjectivity in their self-making, creating an identity that moves beyond the homogenizing impulses of western categories of gender and sexuality. Such subjectivity simultaneously unsettles claims purported by the Christian heteronationalist state and LGBT+ human rights organizations that Ghana is predominantly heterosexual or homophobic. Weaving together personal interactions with sasso, participant observation, autoethnography, archival sources, essays from African and African-diasporic literature, and critical analyses of documentaries such as the BBC's The World?s Worst Place to Be Gay, Amphibious Subjects is an ethnographic meditation on how Africa is configured as the ";heart of homophobic darkness"; in transnational LGBT+ human rights imaginaries. 410 0$aNew Sexual Worlds Series 606 $aEffeminacy$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aGender identity$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aHomosexuality$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aHuman rights$xAnthropological aspects$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aSexual minorities$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aSexual minority community$zGhana$zAccra 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural & Social$2bisacsh 610 $asasso 610 $aethnography 610 $amen 615 0$aEffeminacy 615 0$aGender identity 615 0$aHomosexuality 615 0$aHuman rights$xAnthropological aspects 615 0$aSexual minorities 615 0$aSexual minority community 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural & Social. 676 $a306.7609667 686 $aSOC002010$aSOC064010$2bisacsh 700 $aOtu$b Kwame Edwin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$00 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996483169603316 996 $aAmphibious Subjects$92901185 997 $aUNISA
