Binary Bashers Vol. 2: Latinidad

<p><strong>BINARY BASHERS: LATINIDAD </strong></p><p><strong>The Hidden Bi+ and Queer History of Black and Brown Latin America</strong></p><p>For Latinx Heritage Month 2026, Binary Bashers returns with its second volume: Latinidad, tracing bi-coded and queer-coded lives across the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking Americas, from Mexico to Brazil, and confronting the seven countries where the archive went silent by design.</p><p>This volume follows the same rigorous, evidence-based bi-coded framework introduced in Volume 1, our Black History Month 2026 volume: no speculation, no retroactive labels, just documented lives followed as far as the record allows. Episodes trace Juan Gabriel&#39;s refusal to be labeled, Mário de Andrade&#39;s one surviving letter, Frida Kahlo in her own words, Reinaldo Arenas writing his memoir from a hospital bed, and Marielle Franco, the Afro-Brazilian councilwoman whose murder didn&#39;t silence her.</p><p>The opening episode also names what&#39;s missing. Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Uruguay, Bolivia, Venezuela, and Ecuador: seven countries where almost no bi+ or queer Afro-Latino history survives on record. We treat that silence as evidence, not absence.</p><p>Hosted, researched, and written by Ross Victory.
