Indigiqueerness, A Conversation about Storytelling

By Joshua Whitehead (Author)

Description

Indigiqueerness comprises short biographical stories, personal dialogues, and visual media, featuring Whitehead’s distinctive voice as he reflects on his life and experiences. This slim volume is an excellent example of using voice or visual media in literature, as it combines prose, poetry, and images. The use of various formats beyond standard prose provides alternative ways of including underrepresented perspectives in the classroom, regardless of learners’ comfort with textual communication. This book could inspire assignments where students share how their own identities and experiences have shaped them. The complex themes of sexuality and gender identity are framed in a Q&A format, which makes the topics more accessible for readers, regardless of prior knowledge.
