The concept of each race painting Lenin to look like them, like people do with Jesus.

The same things that cause them psychological turmoil— like unachievable standards of masculinity— are the same things they rely on for their unstable identity.

I hope more people will be awakened to the joys of reading essay collections.
The recent conflation of the whole non fiction genre with pop psychology and self help books is the culprit. Read some Annie dillard or Teju cole, or Aminatta Forna and watch your mind broaden.

Rotimi Fani-Kayode needs to be remembered. a gay Nigerian artist, exiled in the 1960s at the age of 11. I highly suggest the essay: Homoerotic African Art, in which Moyo Okediji analyses the art of Zanele Muholi & Rotimi Fani-Kayode—in the book; Western Frontiers of African Art.
