Description Thinking through queer of color critique, this work explores current debates about intersectionality specifically focusing on how theories of intersectionality impact lived experiences of queer students of color. Utilizing vignettes and personal reflections on dialogues carried out by a university Queer Students of Color group, this thesis demonstrates the complexities uncovered when queer of color subjectivity is thought with intersectionality, assemblages and disidentification. The theoretical and lived tensions of "queerness" raise problematics but also possibilities. The thesis concludes with a discussion of queer possibilities and futurities.
