The story then moves through the queer spaces where he learned the joy of being gay and Latinx, including Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, a drag queen convention in Los Angeles, and the doctor's office where he was diagnosed a "high-risk homosexual." With vulnerability, humor, and quick-witted insights into racial, sexual, familial, and professional power dynamics, Gomez shares a hard-won path to taking pride in the parts of himself that he'd kept hidden. It's a hilarious, beautiful reminder of the importance-in a world that is so often oppressive-of leaving space for joy." -- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Gomez, Edgar $c (Writer) 650 0 $a Hispanic American gays $v Biography. 650 0 $a Gay men $v Biography. 650 0 $a Coming out (Sexual orientation). 941 $a 9 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716033719.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012533.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010032434.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230207010924.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804024736.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220302010700.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220202010539.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220120010035.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20220115010016.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C5C0102675D011EC95ED434A27ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
