If you have been around here before, you know I'm a proud black trans woman from Guadeloupe (and yes, that's in the Caribbean and it's a beautiful island). Today, after some interesting TikTok updates, I want to talk about the concepts that shape our understanding of queerness on my island. I wanna know how things go in YOUR area, especially if you are from the Caribbean too. Let's talk!

PS. I'm also brushing on CÊsaire, Glissant & Fanon. I'll also be mentioning some more French Caribbean authors. You are free to come for me in the comments. MY WRITING: So.. I poured a little of myself over here: ⁠https://transtechsocial.org/island-girl-in-the-castle/ Thoughts?

Oh, and that book I mentioned:

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
