It shows how different experiences and disparate risks of disclosure shape these groups' collective strategies. Through scores of interviews with LGBTQ+ people, undocumented immigrant youth, fat acceptance activists, Mormon fundamentalist polygamists, and sexual harassment lawyers and activists in the era of the #MeToo movement, \u003cem\u003eCome Out, Come Out, Whoever You Are \u003c\/em\u003eexplains why so many different groups gravitate toward the term coming out.
