In Black. Fat. Femme: Revealing the Power of Visibly Queer Voices (in Media) and Learning to Love Yourself, educator and media critic Dr. Jonathan P. Higgins--aka Doctor Jon Paul--delivers an honest and extraordinary new take on how the author, and other Black Fat Femmes like them, have come to find and understand their identity.

  • Discussions of the pioneers who fought so hard to be authentically who they are, both onscreen and off
