Trans Femme Futures

Description

Abolitionist Ethics for Transfeminist Worlds. by Nat Raha and Mijke van der Drift. Pluto Press 2024

Imagining a transfemme future is an act of revolution

‘A brilliant, useful, and immensely moving book that deals a critical blow to the epistemic austerity of our times’ – Jordy Rosenberg

‘Femme’ describes a constellation of queer, gendered expressions that uproot expectations of what it means to be feminine. Building upon experiences of transformation, belonging and harm, this book is a transfeminist call for collective liberation.

Trans Femme Futures envisions the future through everyday actions that revolutionise our lives. Nat Raha and Mijke van der Drift discuss struggles around trans healthcare, the need for collectives over institutions, the importance of mutual care, and transfeminism as abolition.

The authors show how social change can be achieved through transformative practices that allow queer life to thrive in a time of climate, health, political and economic crises.
