Kevin Nixon is currently engaged in an ethnographic study of drag queens in the metro Toronto area, where he is concerned with understanding the potential effect(s) their performances may have on discourses of multiculturalism and homonormativity in Canada. Kevin’s research also examines how contemporary race, class, gender, and sexual politics in Canada structure and/or shape the social identities of drag performers as queer subjects/citizens.
