Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments: Intimate Histories of Social Upheaval by Saidiya Hartman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 18%.
As I got into the book I lost context on whether these were biographies & nonfiction, or if they were just fictional stories using photos in the past as prompts. I was using the audiobook, so the photos weren't included either. -- anyways, it felt upsetting because I wanted to know history of tgnciq women of color, and what i got was something the kind of fiction written when queer & antiracist people are gatekept out of the history/nonfiction field.
