Homonationalism is a deeper exploration of the connection among sexuality, race, gender, nation, class, and ethnicity in relation to the tactics, strategies, and logistics of war machines. Homonationalism emerges from the folding of queer national subjects into the biopolitical management of life for the purpose of serving and maintaining the U.S. empire. This was enabled by America’s expansion of its heteronormative imagined community to incoperate queer national subjects in an effort to consolidate national sentiment for its war on terror.
