On June 12, 2016, the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida was the target of one of the country's deadliest mass shootings. Pulse, a gay nightclub, was hosting a Latin Pride Night the evening of the tragedy, which resulted in the death of 49 victims and 53 casualties, over 90% of whom were lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Latinx people, specifically. The present research investigates the narrative responses from LGBT people of color (LGBT-POC) following the tragedy. Results included an analysis of 94 participant narrative responses. Results were collected online from a sample of LGBT-POC with varying sexual, gender, and racial identities. Thematic analysis revealed four major themes: (1) Violence is Not New for LGBT-POC; (2) Personal Identification with Victims; (3) Lack of Intersectionality in Others' Responses to Orlando; and (4) Acknowledgment of Intersectionality across LGBT-POC. Discussion focuses on describing the ways in which LGBT-POC responded to the shooting regarding their multiple minority identities. Implications of this research reinforce the need for continued intersectional research with LGBT-POC.
2016年6月12日，佛罗里达州奥兰多市的脉动夜总会成为美国最致命的大规模枪击案之一的目标。脉动夜总会是一家同性恋夜总会，悲剧发生当晚正在举办拉丁骄傲之夜活动，导致49人死亡，53人受伤，其中超过90%是女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别（LGBT）拉丁裔人群。本研究调查了有色人种LGBT群体（LGBT-POC）在悲剧发生后的叙事反应。结果包括对94份参与者叙事反应的分析。结果是通过在线方式从具有不同性取向、性别和种族身份的LGBT-POC样本中收集的。主题分析揭示了四个主要主题：（1）暴力对LGBT-POC来说并不新鲜；（2）与受害者的个人认同；（3）其他人对奥兰多事件的反应缺乏交叉性；（4）LGBT-POC之间交叉性的认可。讨论集中在描述LGBT-POC如何就其多重少数群体身份对枪击事件做出反应。本研究的意义强化了对LGBT-POC继续进行交叉性研究的必要性。
