This books examines representations and experiences of trans and nonbinary identities in a variety of contemporary cultural contexts including media, religion, sports, race, film, performance, and literature. Mixing auto-ethnographies and supportive scholarship, the contributors to this volume deliver a global perspective on the accomplishment that have been made alongside the challenges that members of the LGTBQIA+ community continue to face.
Beyond Binaries is a powerful, inclusive, and timely collection of critical essays that engages transgender, gender-fluid, and non-binary identities in meaningful and important ways. This interdisciplinary collection offers diverse accounts of lived and mediated gender experiences that include the beauty and hardships of historical, contemporary, and even future transgender people. The book not only locates critical issues for transgender people here in the US but internationally as well. By bringing forth a diverse collection of voices, methodologies, and theoretical frameworks, the collection establishes its place in the repertoire of any person invested in developing a more holistic and critical understanding of transgender identity.
