The Politics of Transgender Bodies
Transgender Woman Talking - A podcast by E.E. Loewen
Categories:
Elle talks about recent elections in the United States, the politics of being transgender, and therefore the ways in which our bodies are politicized in a hierarchical gender binary whether we choose it or not. She explores the benefits and drawbacks of being invisible to society, including a brief description of Resmaa Menakem's work on bodily trauma in My GrandMother's Hands. She also references Alok V. Menon's work, and the power of nonbinary experience.
