Worldmaking with Aberoo

This work extends theorizations of queer worldmaking and relationality into familial contexts, which are crucial elements of identity for many queer people of color around the globe. Focusing on Iranian Americans in particular, this study demonstrates the futi…

Online interviews were analyzed using grounded theory analysis, revealing that queer Iranian-Ame…

Online interviews were analyzed using grounded theory analysis, which revealed that shame anxiety motivates the fostering of network ignorance. Feelings of…
