Learning histories of Queer and Trans* people of colour helps us reflect on how “gender” changes, structures everyday life, and influences who is ‘remembered’. But LGBT+ history in Europe often applies a white, middle-class understanding of gender and sexuality (and ‘trans-ness’) onto ‘Other cultures’ to selectively include people of colour into Queer historical narratives. This means that “inclusion” comes at the expense of glossing over power imbalances in current and historical communities.
