Qualitative study investigates information practices of black trans men, highlighting intersectionality and visibility management.
Black trans men experience digital platforms as spaces of both exclusion and possibility. This poster presents a qualitative study in progress, drawing from semi‐structured interviews (n = 8 to date, with a goal of 12) and a planned Critical Technocultural Discourse Analysis (CTDA) of 12 podcasts, Instagram videos, and YouTube content. Guided by a sociotechnical systems approach, the study examines how Black trans men navigate information practices across intersecting systems of race, gender, and technology. Preliminary findings highlight four emergent themes: intersectionality, epistemic resistance, visibility management, and platform navigation. These early insights illustrate how marginalized users negotiate information ecologies that often render them invisible while simultaneously building infrastructures of care and knowledge.
