This journal entry is about nation, nationality, and nationalism.
Write about how you conceptualize the intersections of gender and sexuality with nationalism or nationality. How does the nation (either the U.S. nation, or any other nation/country you have lived in) inform your understanding of gender and sexuality? What is it about your location in a specific nation that shapes your personal or political view of queerness/transness? How does colonialism, imperialism, and the global power of the U.S./ Western Europe shape your view of gender and sexuality? This should be a meditative piece, and you can make it as personal or theoretical as you want. If you choose to write a migration narrative (either your own, or of someone you know), pay attention to how racialization factors into immigration. You do not have to answer all these questions. They are only meant to stir your thinking on the intersections of gender/sexuality with nationalism and nationality.
