Coming out narratives of gay, lesbian and bisexual Muslims in Belgium.
The African Centre for Migration & Society (ACMS) will host a lunchtime seminar on coming out narratives of gay, lesbian and bisexual Muslims in Belgium, presented by Dr Wim Peumans, Postdoctoral Fellow at ACMS.
In this seminar, based on ethnographic research on transnational migration, same-sex sexualities, and religion in Belgium, Peumans will look at multiple and ambivalent ways in which lesbian, gay and bisexual men and women with a Muslim background navigate silence and disclosure in the negotiation and performance of sexuality in everyday life, specifically within kin relations.
