Abstract

This article analyzes the role of abject bodies in contemporary times, highlighting autobiographical narrative as a research method. We aim to identify viable tactics for amplifying these abjected voices. We analyze how these LGBTI+ bodies claim spaces that have historically been denied. We conclude that equity can only be achieved when these abjected bodies are recognized, respected and included in all aspects of social and institutional life.
