Kevin Mumford is professor of history at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA.
A wonderful primer for understanding the cultural context of and
many important figures in black gay history.--American
Literature
It's easy to say that Mumford speaks the truth to power throughout
Not Straight, Not White--because he does. Yet, a more nuanced
treasure that Mumford gifts us with is a methodology for
intimacy--to discover how in our closeness, throughout our
vulnerabilities, and by articulating our failures we can (and must
somehow) arrive at the love we all, each one of us, so desperately
need.--CLA Journal
Indispensable for those who reject the erasure of black queerness
in American civil rights history.--The Guardian
The book is an amazing reference that gives historical context of
Black America around some of the most taboo subjects in our
history.--A&U Magazine
