Abstract

This narrative study examined the involvement of Queer Men of Color in culturally based fraternities beyond their undergraduate years. Eight Queer Men of Color discussed how they saw hypermasculine and heterosexist behaviors occurring in online spaces, local chapters, and on a national level. Findings revealed how participants enacted resistance including challenging problematic behaviors, supporting other queer individuals navigating these spaces, and separating themselves from toxic climates. Implications are offered for future research and practice.
