"I closed my eyes as the traditional priestess poured a basin of mysterious oils over me. Stinging my body from head to toe, she repeated the motion several times to wash the 'gay devil' out of me. I was 18 and I was back in Nigeria for Christmas, where homosexuality is illegal, as it is in 33 other African countries. Gay and Nigerian, this was my third exorcism in just a few days' time. Returning to the United States, my struggles continued. As a gay African immigrant, I existed in a strange middle ground of rejection from all corners. Rejected from white LGBT spaces and American society due to my blackness and immigrant status, and from African circles due to my sexuality. I was 'unacceptable' everywhere I turned. I found photography as my voice in this darkness and in 2013 I began Limitless Africans," Mikael Qwunna Limitless Africans is 250 pages, 21cmx21cm and includes 75 color photographs and texts by Zun Lee, a prominent black queer photographer, and Rafeeat Aliyu, a Nigerian woman writer and documentary filmmaker. Limitless Africans is a book documenting the narratives of over 30 LGBTQ African immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers in 10 countries across North America, the Caribbean and Europe. Documented by queer Nigerian photographer, Mikael Owunna, the work explores precolonial African sexuality and contemporary LGBTQ African narratives to debunk the myth that it is 'un-African' to be LGBTQ.
