Undocuqueer

In a study released last month, Cisneros interviewed 31 undocuqueer immigrants to unearth how they navigate being both undocumented and LGBTQ; many said they didn't feel fully embraced by either community, meaning they've had to create their own communities and define their identities for themselves.

Undocuqueer immigrants ascribe meaning to their experiences by producing alternate subjectivities and subject positions that resist multiple axes of oppression.

Unzueta’s scheduled testimony showed that from early-on in undocumented immigrant reform and protest, undocuqueers were part of the conversation.
