A Taste for Brown Bodies | Teoría

Ya que hablamos de idtasteentidades colonizadas o estrategias anticolonialistas, este libro es fundamental para entenderlas en relación a la raza y a la agenda imperialista que tanto nos gusta señalar a los latinoamericanos:

Pérez proposes that modern gay male identity, often traced to late Victorian constructions of “invert” and “homosexual,” occupies not the periphery of the nation but rather a cosmopolitan position, instrumental to projects of war, colonialism, and neoliberalism. A Taste for Brown Bodies argues that practices and subjectivities that we understand historically as forms of homosexuality have been regulated and normalized as an extension of the US nation-state, laying bare the tacit, if complex, participation of gay modernity within US imperialism.
