What do we gain from listening to the trans voices in our communities and theory? What do we miss out on when we don’t listen? Trans theory is still considered niche, a subdiscipline of the itself still marginal queer theory, our right to speak on our own terms conditional when granted at all. In this two-semester course, we will delve into the history of trans activism and theory (semester 1) before engaging with numerous trans interventions and contributions within various disciplines (semester 2). Our goal is to uncover just some of the potential and actual contributions made by trans authors and activists in a variety of fields and develop our own competencies in relation to trans topics within and beyond queer theory. Prior engagements with trans topics is not required. Students are invited to attend for one or both semesters. All texts are in English.
