| Brenna M. Munro examines the stories told about sexuality, race, and nation throughout the struggle against apartheid to uncover how these narratives enabled gay people to become imaginable as citizens. She traces how the gay, lesbian, or bisexual person appeared as a stock character in the pageant of nationhood during the transition to democracy, offering an alternative cultural history of South Africa.
