Is with great enthusiasm that we introduce to you our special issue on family and community among sexual and gender diverse (SGD) People of Color and Indigenous People (POCI). We believe that this special issue meaningfully increases knowledge and awareness of the relationship between SGD POCI individuals and their families and communities. Throughout the special issue, the editors and authors aimed to use positive, strength-based approaches to explore the efforts of POCI families and communities in promoting and cultivating the well-being and growth of their SGD members. At its core, this special issue sought to: (a) move away from White-centered models and conceptualizations of SGD POCI well-being; (b) provide a counter narrative to the White-supremacist belief that POCI families and communities hold more negative views toward SGD family members than their White counterparts; and (c) center the stories of SGD POCI and their collective about culturally appropriate measures, values, and beliefs. Research has well-documented the importance of family and community support in the wellbeing of SGD individuals (see Abreu, Rosenkrantz, Ryser-Oatman, Rostosky, & Riggle, 2019). SGD individuals who lack support from their family experience poorer physical and mental health outcomes (e.g., anxiety, depression, increased suicidal ideation; Bouris et al., 2010; McConnell, Birkett, & Mustanski, 2016). Also, because of heteronormativity and cissexism, family members often experience intense emotional reactions when an individual identifies as SGD (see Chrisler, 2017; Huebner, Roche, & Rith, 2019). Most of the scholarship focused on SGD individuals and their families and communities comes from predominantly White individuals in the United States, with little attention given to understanding the role of race, ethnicity, and culture (see Abreu, Riggle, & Rostosky, 2020). Given these findings, the editors wanted to create a special issue that provides holistic narratives about SGD POCI and their families and communities by moving away from comparative studies that depict SGD POCI and their families and communities as deficient. It was the editors’ hope that this special issue would allow for unique discussions about SGD POCI narratives using appropriate cultural lenses to contextualize SGD POCI stories. In this issue, we sought to incorporate disciplinary and interdisciplinary submissions from scholars and practitioners, including empirical studies, critical analyses, and reviews to inform practice, policy, and directions for future research. The authors in this special issue responded to this call by: 1) addressing intersectional approaches to studying SGD POCI in family and community contexts, 2) highlighting the experiences of SGD POCI within their families and communities, 3) using positiveand strength-based approaches to understanding the experiences of SGD POCI, 4) conducting systematic analyses of theways in which SGD identities impact their

重新定义集体主义:有色人种和性别多样的土著人民中的家庭和社区:特刊简介

我们以极大的热情向您介绍有关性与性别多样化(SGD)的有色人种和原住民(POCI)中家庭和社区的专刊。我们认为,该期特刊有意义地增加了对SGD POCI个人及其家庭和社区之间关系的认识和认识。在整个特刊中,编辑和作者的目的是使用积极的,基于力量的方法来探索POCI家庭和社区在促进和培养其SGD成员的福祉和成长方面的努力。本期专刊的核心内容是:(a)摆脱以白人为中心的SGD POCI幸福感模型和概念化;(b)与白人至上主义者的信念相反,即POCI家庭和社区对SGD家庭成员的看法比白人白人更为消极;(c)将SGD POCI及其集体的故事集中在文化上适当的措施,价值和信念上。研究已经充分证明了家庭和社区支持对SGD个人福祉的重要性(参见Abreu,Rosnkrantz,Ryser-Oatman,Rostosky和Riggle,2019年)。缺乏家人支持的SGD个人的身心健康状况较差(例如,焦虑,抑郁,自杀意念增加; Bouris等人,2010; McConnell,Birkett和&Mustanski,2016)。另外,由于异性恋和同性恋行为,当一个人被确定为SGD时,家庭成员经常会经历强烈的情绪反应(参见Chrisler,2017; Huebner,Roche,&Rith,2019)。大部分奖学金是针对SGD个人及其家庭和社区的,主要来自美国的白人个人,很少关注了解种族,族裔和文化的作用(见Abreu,Riggle和Rostosky,2020年)。鉴于这些发现,编辑们希望摆脱对SGD POCI及其家人和社区缺乏的比较研究,从而创造一个特别的期刊,提供有关SGD POCI及其家人和社区的整体叙述。编辑们希望,本期专刊将允许使用适当的文化视角对SGD POCI故事进行背景讨论,从而对SGD POCI叙事进行独特的讨论。在本期杂志中,我们试图纳入学者和实践者的学科和跨学科研究成果,包括实证研究,批判性分析和评论,以为实践,政策和未来研究方向提供依据。本期特刊的作者通过以下方式回应了这一呼吁:1)解决在家庭和社区背景下研究SGD POCI的交叉方法,2)强调其家庭和社区中SGD POCI的经验,3)使用基于积极和基于优势的方法了解SGD POCI的经验,4)对SG​​D身份影响其身份的方式进行系统分析 在本期杂志中,我们试图纳入学者和实践者的学科和跨学科研究成果,包括实证研究,批判性分析和评论,以为实践,政策和未来研究方向提供依据。本期特刊的作者通过以下方式回应了这一呼吁:1)解决在家庭和社区背景下研究SGD POCI的交叉方法,2)强调其家庭和社区中SGD POCI的经验,3)使用基于积极和基于优势的方法了解SGD POCI的经验,4)对SG​​D身份影响其身份的方式进行系统分析 在本期中,我们力求将学者和实践者的学科和跨学科研究成果纳入其中,包括实证研究,批判性分析和评论,以为实践,政策和未来研究方向提供依据。本期特刊的作者通过以下方式回应了这一呼吁:1)解决在家庭和社区背景下研究SGD POCI的交叉方法,2)强调其家庭和社区中SGD POCI的经验,3)使用基于积极和基于优势的方法了解SGD POCI的经验,4)对SG​​D身份影响其身份的方式进行系统分析 和未来研究的方向。本期特刊的作者通过以下方式回应了这一呼吁:1)解决在家庭和社区背景下研究SGD POCI的交叉方法,2)强调其家庭和社区中SGD POCI的经验,3)使用基于积极和基于优势的方法了解SGD POCI的经验,4)对SG​​D身份影响其身份的方式进行系统分析 和未来研究的方向。本期特刊的作者通过以下方式回应了这一呼吁:1)解决在家庭和社区背景下研究SGD POCI的交叉方法,2)强调其家庭和社区中SGD POCI的经验,3)使用基于积极和基于优势的方法了解SGD POCI的经验,4)对SG​​D身份影响其身份的方式进行系统分析
