Go to review page

challenging informative medium-paced

5.0

an excellent look at the various ways that trans feminine people of color are repeatedly left out of the ‘rights’ conversation due to colonialism, racism, and transmisogyny, specifically in response to the 2012 book Transgender 101 by Nicholas Teich, a white trans man. binaohan examines how white queer and trans people continually use white privilege to gain power at the expense of further targeting trans feminine Indigenous, Black, and people of color.
