Being Queer, Being Trans

Both trans and queer are expansive terms that carry connotations beyond just gender or sexual identity. This course examines some of the various ways being trans or being queer have been rendered historically and socially, from the records of medical institutions and colonial accounts of non-European gender and sexuality, to historical and contemporary accounts produced by trans people themselves. This course covers a range of queer and trans perspectives to uncover what they can tell us about the organization of sex, gender, race, class, and other forms of social difference.
