}}Kicked Out is a 2010 anthology compiled and edited by Sassafras Lowrey. The book includes personal narratives from homeless and formerly homeless LGBT youth, as well as policy essays from service providers.[1]

The book is intended to serve both as a "guidebook"[2]

and to draw attention to youth homelessness to the broader LGBT community.[3]

The book calls for not only "more and better resources for at-risk LGBTQ youth, but also a transformation of the structures that maintain the epidemics of homelessness, suicidality, mental illness and addiction in this marginalized population."[4]

The book's editor, Sassafras Lowrey, lived through homelessness, and shares hir story as part of the anthology.[5]

Reception

The Lambda Literary Foundation gave the book a positive review, noting that while it acknowledged challenges facing LGBTQ youth, "the work emphasizes coping and resiliency."[6] Kicked out was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award[7]

and was included on the American Library Association's Rainbow book list[8]

and Over the Rainbow book list.[1]
