Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic and international protests of the violences of the prison industrial complex (PIC) have put matters of health, safety, and healing at the forefront of social justice struggles. Prison abolitionists around the world are asking: How do we dismantle systems of oppression foundational to carceral institutions within which and from which we find ourselves needing to heal' Or as Adaku Utah, Nigerian healer and liberation educator, prompts: how do we "create systems and structures that build wellness, safety, care, and power and depend less on the state and systems of violence' What do we need to transform in ourselves and in our organizations to build this kind of world'"1 (emphasis added) These ...

Abstract: Content warning: child abuse, rape, and graphic violence.What does a Black trans girl know about healing, revolution, and transformative justice' In the fantasy/speculative fiction young adult novel PET (2019) by Igbo and Tamil agender writer and artist Akwaeke Emezi, she knows a lot about them. The world of PET honors her wisdom—she who heals and transforms her world, and she who is supported by Black people and community. Indeed, Emezi conjures up a world where the Black trans girl has an important role to play in multiple generations of Black life, from childhood to old age. In writing such a protagonist for YA literature, Emezi refuses the "racial innocence" and hetero- and cisnormativity intrinsic to the white ... Read More

Abstract: Content Warning: TransphobiaThe early childhood classroom setting is one of the first major social institutions that normalizes carcerality to young children.1 Early play will echo the impact of dominant culture on imagination and childhood. Already at age two, children begin to enforce beliefs and decisions which are rooted in anti-Black, racist, transphobic, homophobic, and patriarchal violence—policing anything that leans too far outside the margin.2 The need to label and reject that which is unfamiliar reifies U.S. culture's obsession with criminalizing the marginalized. These harmful, violent ideologies will grow with us if there is no intervention. Jackson and Meiners discuss this internalization of the ... Read More

Abstract: Hate crimes laws thus legally articulate the value of transgender people's lives, even as this articulation of inclusion is produced by and through their deaths. Simultaneously, hate crimes legislation contributes to a broader biopolitical imperative to manage poor people and people of color by channeling them into a massive carceral project. …It is important to distinguish between rallying for the inclusion of transgender identity as a unique legally protected group under hate crimes statutes—the distinctive representation of anti-trans hate crimes data points—versus the collective labor of figuring out how best to narrate anti-trans violence in order to change the material conditions for the benefit of trans ...

Abstract: During 2020, two nonbinary drama therapists meet on Zoom to explore queer(ing) drama therapy. Each represents different intersectional identities, yet both envision a decolonized, queer methodology that transcends current limitations in drama therapy practice. Their resulting dual reflections are separated by a series of asterisks. The North American Drama Therapy Association defines drama therapy as the intentional use of drama and/or theatre processes to achieve therapeutic goals.1 Through variations of methodologies like play, storytelling, role theory, projection, and witnessing, drama therapy creates several threads of possibilities across the spectrum of healing.(c, a 29-year-old queer Filipino cultural ...

Abstract: In an article entitled "Who Needs Astrology," which borrows its title from Stuart Halls's essay, "Who Needs 'Identity,'"1 Tabitha Prado-Richardson posits that the resurgent appeal of contemporary astrology lies in its capacity to hold "both optimism and pessimism depending on emotional necessity."2 Although queer theories of the early oughts valorized entropic force, scheming spectacular ends to futuristic thinking and positing asociality as an organizing politics, astrology stages a stubbornly relational and anticipatory frame—not optimism, necessarily, but an understanding that good things can still happen despite the sinking sensation that things are only getting worse. This partially utopic frame explains the ... Read More

Abstract: In her poem "A Litany for Survival,"1 Audre Lorde proclaims we were never meant to survive. This "we" is ambiguous. She speaks of "those who live at the shoreline, standing upon the constant edges of decision, crucial and alone," those who "love in doorways coming and going, in the hours between dawns, looking inward and outward," and those who "were imprinted by fear," But we know she herself is included; Black, lesbian, survivor, and warrior. She speaks of those who exist on the margins, in a liminal space. Such marginal existence compels us to pose questions: Will their troubled existence give space for their dreams to be fulfilled' For their love to be seen' To heal'This liminal space and these margins hold ...

At the same time, we were reminded that police violence "stems from the very function of policing to enforce an unjust racial order."1 One of the common demands made in response to prison abolition was replacing police with social workers. Although I understand the call for social workers to step in rather than the police, social workers also ... Read More

I was an 18-year-old white boy from the suburbs placed in there with handcuffs around my wrists, shackles around my ankles, and chains to connect it all. Me and two men were all headed to the same place, state prison. The ride was a short one, but at the same time, it was the longest ride of my life. The van that took me to state prison drove me through my hometown before getting on the highway. It would be the last time I would see it. What started ... Read More

Abstract: What insights can we gain about post-1994 South African national identity from queer and gender-nonconforming peoples' artistic and everyday performances' What effects, and affects, do mediated representations of queer South Africans produce in audiences' In Prismatic Performances: Queer South Africa and the Fragmentation of the Rainbow Nation, April Sizemore-Barber attempts to answer these questions. The author convincingly argues that "queer embodiments, because of their ambiguous relation to the nation-state serve as unstable and prismatic lenses on the post-apartheid moment" (18).

Abstract: In 2019, the University of Texas Press announced the launch of a new book series: "Latinx: The Future is Now." Edited by Nicole Guidotti-Hernandez and Lorigia Garcia-Peña, the series invited authors to submit works that consider the multiple overlapping dynamics of queer and gender fluid potentialities embodied in the "x." As I read and reflect on this call, I cannot help but giggle to myself. The "x." It's tiny. A miniature coda to a word. And yet, if you have ever been privy to conversations in Latinx and Chicanx studies, you know as I do, the teeny, little "x" generates colossal controversy. And it is this dichotomy that propels my chuckling. As I continue to reflect, however, my laughter subsides into a feeling ... Read More

Abstract: In 1969, I'll Get There. It Better Be Worth the Trip, routinely credited as the first young adult (YA) novel to feature overtly gay content, was published.1 In the fifty years since then—and in the past ten years in particular—queer YA, as it is now known, has exploded in popularity, and the cultural landscape in which these works are published is unrecognizable: as we're so often told, "queer" is mainstream, apparently. In Queer Anxieties of Young Adult Literature and Culture, Derritt Mason argues that, despite these seismic changes, critical discourses surrounding queer YA have not evolved much since the inception of the genre. Now, as then, critics emphasize the importance of narratives that feature happy ... Read More

Abstract: Lisa Flores's Deportable and Disposable discusses how public discourse reflects the constitution of Mexican identities, as they are racialized against U.S. nation-state xenophobia and economic needs. The book analyzes racialization in the early twentieth century, illustrating how Mexican migrants became "perpetually returnable," "temporary, cheap labor," understood as "deportable and disposable," while racialized into "illegality" (4). Flores explores how the tropes of "illegal alien," "zoot suiter," "bracero," and "wetback" do the "critical rhetorical work of racialization" in legal, cultural, and political practice between the 1920s and 1950s (4). Flores expertly argues "race as rhetorical" through "narratives of ... Read More

Abstract: For hegemonic discourses of representation, critical scholars have paid intense attention to the U.S. nationalism politicizing the xenophobic hierarchy of differences. Aligning with anti-essentialist frameworks of identity construction, queering the global Filipina body signifies a rhetorical space of intersectional resistance where diasporic figures are racialized, gendered, and classed to facilitate the U.S. imperialism and purify the American national identity simultaneously. Within these inter/transcultural contexts, Velasco incorporates their anti-imperialist feminist standpoints to contest the racial heteropatriarchal structure of transnational exploitation. The book uncloaks the presence of nationalist ... Read More

Abstract: Whenever a new moral panic arises, I find myself turning into the infamous Church Lady from Saturday Night Live and asking: "could it be Satan'" My experiences as a queer and outcast teen metalhead made me well acquainted with the fear inspired from Satan's supposed corruptive powers. Despite not falling within the metal genre, Lil Nas X's music video for "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)" recalls many of the fantastical and Satanic themes that pervaded my youth but doing so in an indisputably queer way. Lil Nas X plays every character in the video wherein audiences are met with a narrative of oppression, castigation, and salvation through self-acceptance and love. Co-directed by Lil Nas X and Tanu Muino, the video ... Read More
