"When my Brother Fell, I Picked Up His Weapons": Collective Remembrance as Community Mobilization among Black Gay, Bisexual, and Queer Men.

Abstract

The Counter Narrative Project (CNP) was founded to shift narratives and shatter stereotypes about Black gay, bisexual, and queer men to advance social justice. This paper describes three programs CNP implemented that were organized around collective memory as a strategy to respond to collective trauma experienced by this community.
