The topic of the paper is queer women of color in hip hop.

Things to consider:

The presence of lesbian women of color has consistently been ignored in hip. Hip hop also ignores the work of lesbian women of color. It is as if queer women are invisible. It does not fit easily into the commonly accepted mold. The sexuality of lesbian women of color is misrepresented and exploited in lyricism and videos.

Question - how does hip hop sexism and heterosexism intersect to complicate hip hop and feminism? Make a correlation between hip hop music and black masculinity among queer women.

The discussion of lesbianism, heterosexism, homophobia in hip hop discourse can be seen in the work of rappers Sista Souljah, Queen Latifah, and Queen Pen. Sista Souljah is directly complicit in the continuum of a heterosexist and homophobic discourse in hip hop where as Queen Latifah and Queen Pen are passively complicit and do not challenge the sexism, heterosexism and homophobia discourse. It can be said that all three rappers had potential to redefine the strong Black women in hip hop as not the homogenous, heterosexual, male dependent, sex driven image by breaking ground for discussion but instead present women as "straight and linked to a man" (Gwendolyn Pough).
