Title
How You Doin'?: Social Discrimination and its Impact on Health Among Black Men Who Have Sex with Men in Montreal
Abstract
The author explores how six African and Caribbean immigrant English-speaking men who have sex with men experience social discrimination (homophobia, racism, poverty, etc.). He examines the impact of this social discrimination on their mental and sexual health. The author found that the six participants' experiences of social discrimination in multiple and intersecting forms, such as racism, homophobia and classism, had an impact upon their identities, relationships with others and sexual and mental health. Participants recommended that a holistic individualized intervention program be used to address the effects of intersectional social discrimination on their identities and well-being.
