RESILIENCY FACTORS AMONG TRANSGENDER PEOPLE OF COLOR by Maureen G. White A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Psychology at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2013 ABSTRACT RESILIENCY FACTORS AMONG TRANSGENDER PEOPLE OF COLOR by Maureen G. White The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2013 Under the Supervision of Professor Dr. Shannon Chavez-Korell Much of the research on transgender individuals has been geared towards identifying risk factors including suicide, HIV, and poverty. Little to no research has been conducted on resiliency factors within the transgender community. The few research studies that have focused on transgender individuals have made little or no reference to transgender people of color. This study utilized the Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) approach to examine resiliency factors among eleven transgender people of color. -
The Politics of Homophobia in Brazil: Congress and Social (Counter)Mobilization
The Politics of Homophobia in Brazil: Congress and Social (counter)Mobilization by Robert Tyler Valiquette A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Political Science Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Robert Tyler Valiquette, June, 2017 ABSTRACT THE POLITICS OF HOMOPHOBIA IN BRAZIL: CONGRESS AND SOCAIL (COUNTER)MOBILIZATION Tyler Valiquette Advisor: University of Guelph, 2017 Professor J Díez In recent years, Latin America has seen significant progress in the expansion of LGBT rights such as the implementation of same-sex marriage and the creation of some of the world’s most advanced gender identity laws. Brazil was at the front of this progression and by the early 2000’s, scholars believed Brazil was poised to emerge as Latin America’s gay rights champion. Despite some advancements, the image of Brazil as a gay rights champion is nebulous. The Brazilian Congress has failed in passing federal legislation protecting sexual minorities from violence and discrimination and this thesis seeks to answer why. Qualitative interviews were conducted with LGBT activists, political aides, politicians and Evangelical Pastors. Ultimately this thesis argues that Brazil does not have LGBT anti- discrimination policy because of two factors: 1) a weakening LGBT social movement and 2) a strong countermovement to LGBT rights. iii Acknowledgements Thanks is offered to numerous people upon the completion of this thesis. First, my deepest gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Jordi Díez. I first contacted Dr. Díez in 2015 with a simple idea for research. From that moment on, Dr. Díez offered limitless support. -
