Abstract

Despite International efforts by NGOs and social movements to protect lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex (LGBTQI) people in Africa, they still face injustices, stigma, and discrimination. This study uses an assemblage approach to analyze narratives collected through interviews with LGBTQI individuals in Nairobi, Kenya about the daily strategies they use to navigate the tensions between their need for livelihood security, personal safety, and their gender and sexual identity. The study employs the analysis of daily experiences to discuss how contexts and preferences interact with internal sexual identities and choices for external expressions of sexual identities.

战略调整：内罗毕女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人、同性恋者和双性人的日常经历

尽管国际非政府组织和社会运动努力保护非洲的女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别者、同性恋者和双性人（LGBTQI），但他们仍然面临不公正、耻辱和歧视。本研究采用组合方法，分析通过对肯尼亚内罗毕的 LGBTQI 人士进行访谈收集到的叙述，了解他们在生活保障需求、人身安全以及性别和性身份之间的紧张关系中使用的日常策略。本研究通过对日常经历的分析，讨论了环境和偏好如何与内在的性身份和性身份的外在表达方式相互作用。
