2020 Statelessness & Citizenship Review 2(1) discrimination (at the hands of individual officials) or manifest itself at the interface of complex constellations of different regimes of recognition/nonrecognition (eg of non-traditional family units, sex/gender transition and surrogacy). Finally, the fact that LGBTIQ+ persons are not referenced in the literature as profiles at risk of statelessness may — in self-fulfilling fashion — further compound the lack of attention received. For example, both statelessness and SOGIESC are separately reported as being missed or misunderstood during the process of assessing asylum claims. 42 INTERSECTIONAL EXPERIENCES As a #stateless #LGBT #immigrant of South African descent I have many aspirations sadly having no protection is inconvenient. #IBelong (USA, 2016) 43 I'm just so tired of being #stateless in Lebanon. Queer, in love, stateless, and unheard from all nations. What can tears and melancholy do in this case? [...] When a stateless LGBT tells you the world is too much, that's when you have to check the privilege of belonging. #IBelong (Lebanon, 2019) 44 The term ‘intersectionality’ was coined by black feminist scholar Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw in 1989 as an approach to challenge ‘the conceptual limitations of the single-issue analyses’ for multiply-burdened subjectivities. 45 While the UndocuQueer movement mentioned in the previous section emerged as a term and community-based advocacy movement to represent the intersection of undocumented individuals identifying as queer in the United States of America, (to the knowledge of the author) no analogous representation exists anywhere in the world for LGBTIQ+ individuals who are stateless. Exploring the factors behind the emergence of UndocuQueer — or indeed the non-emergence of a ‘StatelessQueer’ movement — is an exercise far beyond the scope of the present article. That said, and despite their different non-citizen statuses, the body of academic work on UndocuQueer is helpful in framing some of the broader issues that also impact stateless LGBTIQ+ persons. As one scholar conducting field work in San Francisco states: Most of UndocuQueers … do not fall into the reified category of mobile humans who cross physical borders … due to their undocumented status [they] are not able to move freely. 46 42 43 44 45 46 Addressing Statelessness in Europe’s Refugee Response: Gaps and Opportunities (Report, European Network on Statelessness and Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion May 2019) 3; Missing the Mark: Decision Making on Lesbian, Gay (Bisexual, Trans and Intersex) Asylum Claims (Report, UK Lesbian & Gay Immigration Group September 2013).
