Beyond Personhood: An Essay in Trans Philosophy
by Talia Mae BettcherA bold intervention in the philosophical concepts of gender, sex, and selfBeyond Personhood provides an entirely new philosophical approach to trans experience, trans oppression, gender dysphoria, and the relationship between gender and identity. Until now, trans experience has overwhelmingly been understood in terms of two reductive frameworks: trans people are either &“trapped in the wrong body&” or they are oppressed by the gender binary. Both accounts misgender large trans constituencies while distorting their experience, and neither can explain the presentation of trans people as make-believers and deceivers or the serious consequences thereof. In Beyond Personhood, Talia Mae Bettcher demonstrates how taking this phenomenon seriously affords a new perspective on trans oppression and trans dysphoria—one involving liminal states of &“make-believe&” that bear positive possibilities for self-recognition and resistance. Undergirding this account is Bettcher&’s groundbreaking theory of interpersonal spatiality—a theory of intimacy and distance that requires rejection of the philosophical concepts of person, self, and subject. She argues that only interpersonal spatiality theory can successfully explain trans oppression and gender dysphoria, thus creating new possibilities for thinking about connection and relatedness. An essential contribution to the burgeoning field of trans philosophy, Beyond Personhood offers an intersectional trans feminism that illuminates transphobic, sexist, heterosexist, and racist oppressions, situating trans oppression and resistance within a much larger decolonial struggle. By refusing to separate theory from its application, Bettcher shows how a philosophy of depth can emerge from the everyday experiences of trans people, pointing the way to a reinvigoration of philosophy.

I always called him just Prince." Tasked to watch over a young man in suspended animation, Phae, a clone, spends his life alone on an empty spaceship, focused only on the protection of his ward. Prince isn't scheduled to wake for another twenty years, but an attack on the ship starts the automatic awakening procedure. Prince relieves Phae's loneliness and teaches him the meaning of love. However, the mission becomes more complicated than either man was led to believe--and far more dangerous. Their destination is a world held hostage, where clones are disposable and Phae is scheduled for "recycling" when his duty is done.

Trans People's Partnerships
by Tam SangerTo what extent are contemporary relationships shaped and limited by the social and legal discourses surrounding them? Are people becoming freer to live the lives they desire or are they manipulated subtly into these very desires? Might the insights gained through exploration of intimate partnerships, as they are currently being lived and negotiated, transform how we perceive gender, sexuality and intimacy? Do we need to think differently about how we come to be who we are, and thereby rethink how we relate to ourselves and others? These are just some of the questions thatthis bookaddresses in considering the narratives of trans people and their partners and in proposing 'the ethics of intimacy', or the rethinking of intimate selves in order to increase freedom from domination and governance.

Queering Families: Reproductive Justice in Precarious Times (Reproductive Justice: A New Vision for the 21st Century)
by Tamara Lea SpiraEnvisioning queer futures where we lovingly wager everything for the world’s children, the planet, and all living beings against all odds, and in increasingly precarious times. Queering Families traces the shifting dominant meanings of queer family from the late twentieth century to today. With this book, Tamara Lea Spira highlights the growing embrace of normative family structures by LGBTQ+ movements—calling into question how many queers, once deemed unfit to parent, have become contradictory agents within the US empire’s racial and colonial agendas. Simultaneously, Queering Families celebrates the rich history of queer reproductive justice, from the radical movements of the 1970s through the present, led by Black, decolonial, and queer of color feminist activists. Ultimately, Spira argues that queering reproductive justice impels us to build communities of care to cherish and uphold the lives of those who, defying normativity’s violent stranglehold, are deemed to be unworthy of life. She issues the call to lovingly wager a future for the world’s children, the planet, and all living beings against all odds, and in increasingly perilous times.
Hood Wellness: Tales of Communal Care from People Who Drowned on Dry Land
by Tamela J. Gordon&“A funny, thought-provoking, and profound memoir about the intersection of Blackness and health. Gordon&’s vision of a more just future feels both inspiring and possible.&” — Kirkus Starred ReviewWhat does self-care look like when struggling to make ends meet, living with a disability, or navigating intersectional marginalization? How can you prioritize well-being while divesting from systems built to destroy you? The answer: Hood Wellness, a groundbreaking exploration that challenges the oppressive systems deeply rooted in health and wellness industries in the United States. In a world where self-care is critical to survival, Gordon offers a revolutionary perspective that celebrates individuals' unique privileges, challenges, and desires. By defying the norms of multi-billion-dollar industries, Hood Wellness illuminates the possibilities that emerge when we prioritize well-being while divesting from harmful structures. Hood Wellness is also a deep exploration of people forced to overcome harrowing circumstances with little more than communal support and the will to get well. From terminal illness and police violence to embracing gender identity in a society that's attacking trans and queer rights, each story reflects America's extreme political, racial, and gender climates. Gordon challenges everything we think we know about wellness by calling out the wellness industry's inability to include those outside the margins of white, heteronormative identities. She lays plain that self-care as we know it is mostly just surface-level "cute," and communal care is the call-to-action that America needs. Drawing on elements of memoir, self-help, humor, critical race theory, and devastatingly honest storytelling, Gordon guides readers on a transformative journey toward a new paradigm of wellness. This compelling book serves as a beacon, empowering individuals to cultivate resilience and self-love in today's world. As Gordon shares her personal odyssey, she intertwines the stories of others, revealing her profound discoveries, triumphs, and passions related to self-care. Hood Wellness introduces readers to an inclusive and accessible self-care primer and an approach to well-being that holds the potential to bring about profound change in their lives.
