Understanding the Intersecting Stigmas and Discrimination That Impact the Lives of Black LGBTQIA+ Refugees and Asylum Seekers in Canada
摘要
The existing frameworks and methodologies in the scholarly literature on Black mental health have failed to provide space to discuss the intersecting stigmas and discrimination that impact the lives of African, Afro-Caribbean, and Black LGBTQIA+ refugees and asylum seekers in Canada. As such, this chapter will articulate an Afrocentric, trauma-informed approach to care for Afro-Caribbean LGBTQIA+ newcomers that builds on the interdisciplinary scholarship needed to support their resettlement process, mental well-being, and ongoing success.
