Sommario/riassunto: | Since the early 2000's, the phenomenon of the "down low"-black men who have sex with men as well as women and do not identify as gay, queer, or bisexual-has exploded in media and popular culture. C. Riley Snorton traces the emergence and circulation of the down low, demonstrating how these portrayals reinforce troubling perceptions of black sexuality generally. |
