Angela, Very obvious I know, but Robert Mapplethorpe's images would be relevant. Also, Unchant D'Amour (Genet, 1954) which can be found on the Gay Classics Collection alongside Looking For Langston (Julien,1988) which deals with gay black masculinity, though not specifically pornographic, it references the eroticization of the gay black male body. If I think of anything more I'll drop you another line. Good Luck!
