Within the realm of Caribbean policymaking and law-making, purposive erasure and exclusion of marginalised and minoritised identities have been integral to maintaining colonially inherited status quo definitions of personhood. Individuals who harbour nonnormative sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC[s]) are among those most vulnerable to this specific form of systemic violence. Indeed, even in the face of direct inclusion of diverse SOGIESCs in draft policies and stringent advocacy among civil society actors, policy and lawmakers have often relied on erasure presumably as a politically expedient means of tacitly maintaining public approval. In this chapter, I will offer evidence to demonstrate that these acts of exclusion deliberately occur within the policy and legislative landscape, as well as illustrate the inherent violence of invisibilisation at this level. These contributions will be juxtaposed with examples of how inclusion is used as a systemically violent form of virtue signalling, which will be underscored by historical arguments for the continued reliance upon this duality of invisibilisation versus inclusion and how this strategy further disenfranchises other marginalised groups.
