In \u003ci\u003eComing Out to the Streets\u003c\/i\u003e, Brandon Andrew Robinson examines their lives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Based on interviews and ethnographic fieldwork in central Texas, \u003ci\u003eComing Out to the Streets\u003c\/i\u003e looks into the LGBTQ youth's lives before they experience homelessness--within their families, schools, and other institutions--and later when they navigate the streets, deal with police, and access shelters and other services. Through this documentation, Brandon Andrew Robinson shows how poverty and racial inequality shape the ways that the LGBTQ youth negotiate their gender and sexuality before and while they are experiencing homelessness. To address LGBTQ youth homelessness, Robinson contends that solutions must move beyond blaming families for rejecting their child. In highlighting the voices of the LGBTQ youth, Robinson calls for queer and trans liberation through systemic change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brandon Andrew Robinson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520299272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520299276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2021","brand":"Brandon Andrew Robinson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046034796799,"sku":"9780520299276","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3b00b6f5-7536-4014-831d-3605fd4625af.jpg?v=1684982234","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-out-to-the-streets-brandon-andrew-robinson-9780520299276","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
