You ever think about how black culture is simultaneously pervasive over the entire world, foundational to memes, slang, food, musicx999, sports, and cinema but it's also so highly correlated with poverty and being underneath someone's heel? It's like how can the creators of some of the world's most prodigious cultural products not also be held in esteem and abundance?
I don't mean to equivocate imply these are equal or imply queerness doesn't dwell in the same areas. On the contrary I'm sure you could talk at length about the intersection. It seems like the blood thirsty machine has a pattern to it.
While it is only something I read about once on an insomnia-bender, apparently electronic music, esp house, has its origins in that specific intersectionality. From what I remember, the post-disco evolution into house/techno was incubated in Queer-POC clubs.
I remember sharing Chicane's (presentation of? maybe some copyright issues?) Sun:Sets with a bi friend at work one time and they made an off-color joke about our sexual orientations. With that kind of context it makes a bit more sense.
