To investigate resilience strategies used by Black gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) to navigate racism and heterosexism. In 2019, we conducted in-depth interviews with 46 Black MSM in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Cleveland, Ohio. Thematic analysis, informed by intersectionality, was used to identify intersectional resilience within the context of participants' lives. Our analyses revealed ways in which Black MSM respond to stigma and oppression. We identified the following themes that capture these experiences: pride in intersectional identities, perseverance, community advocacy, and social support. Our analyses reveal how men draw on these assets and resources to positively adapt despite experiences of racism and heterosexism. Intersectional resilience can support Black MSM in navigating racism and heterosexism. However, public health interventions at the institutional and system levels are needed to directly target the root causes of oppression and support resources that facilitate intersectional resilience.

探讨黑人男同性恋、双性恋和其他与男性发生性关系的男性（MSM）用来应对种族主义和异性恋主义的适应策略。2019 年，我们在威斯康星州密尔沃基和俄亥俄州克利夫兰对 46 名黑人 MSM 进行了深入访谈。主题分析，受交叉性影响，用于确定参与者生活背景下的交叉适应能力。我们的分析揭示了黑人 MSM 应对污名和压迫的方式。我们确定了以下主题，这些主题体现了这些经历：对交叉身份的自豪感、坚持不懈、社区宣传和社会支持。我们的分析揭示了男性如何利用这些资产和资源来积极适应种族主义和异性恋主义。交叉适应能力可以支持黑人 MSM 应对种族主义和异性恋主义。然而，需要在机构和系统层面采取公共卫生干预措施，直接针对压迫的根源，并支持促进交叉适应能力的资源。（。2022 年；112（S4）：S405-S412。https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2021.306677）。
