Epprecht, Marc. Hungochani: The History of a Dissident Sexuality in Southern Africa. Montreal, Canada: McGill-Queens UP. 2004.
This is an anthropological look at "non-hetero" and (from a Western view) gender-bending practices and relationships in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and round the Cape. While looking at what people did and how they viewed themselves, as well as how their societies viewed them in return, Epprecht tries hard not to impose Western definitions of sexuality on what he has found.

| 14. |
Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe. Unspoken Facts: A History of Homosexualities in Africa. Harare: GALZ. 2008.
This expands Epprecht's book but also adds histories of the European/colonial influence on African views of sexuality, the gay experience in the countryside, the newer nationalist movements' approaches to sexuality, HIV/AIDS issues, and a discussion of contemporary rights issues.This is useful for countering uninformed claims like those heard during the Ugandan bill last year (i.e. “homosexuality is the imported product of the liberal secular/irreligious West”).

Hoad, Neville. African Intimacies: Race, Homosexuality, and Globalization. Minneapolis: U of Minnesota. 2007.
Hoad ties in trends in Southern Africa towards homosexuality with independence politics, gay rights, AIDS and public health programming, and the Anglican church's work on the continent.
