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:

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
