The book focuses in on asexual people who do not experience sexual attraction at all.
The book focuses on US history and context.
This book will show you the clear ties between white supremacy, the patriarchy and capitalism to racism, queerphobia, and compulsory sexuality. It will share with you how black sexuality has been forced, shaped and willfully misinterpreted by white supremacy agendas. It will also contain testimonies of lived black asexual experiences. And it will end on a positive note on the futures of asexual people.
Loved it.
