CONFIRMATN OF FIRST GAY DOCTOR PROMIS A QUEER ERA OF DOCTOR WHO
* der gay doctor *
A gay, Ain Amerin male, about to go to a high school dance, readg the word sent over stant msenger by two of my classmat. I'm also remd of my relatnship wh anger as a Black, gay male livg Ameri; a untry where righteo anger as a morized person n lead to your ath; a untry where simply beg born Black, simply existg wh the "wrong" sk lor n mean you don't make to, that onle msage wasn't the last time I was lled the n-word high school. It was the same wh homophobic slurs.
I hoped would be a place where I uld let go of the first weeks I was rejected om a aterny bee I was gay. Some aterny brothers later told me how my beg openly gay had led to me beg "blacklisted" by two people the aterny at the end of votg for bids.
I would show those who said I "didn't get along wh people" that they had msed wh the wrong Black, gay person. Whether was the treatment of women science, racism, homophobia, xenophobia, societal equi; we sat the chaos of the world together. It was the bigger moments when iends publicly lled out others for homophobic slurs, or when I then realized I uld speak up agast such words too.
