Transgender History by Susan Stryker

5.0

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the topic. It took me a over a month to get through it because I was constantly marking up spots to return to and googling so much stuff. It felt like I was reading a condensed “Smithsonian” museum on transgender history, and I mean that in the best way! Such an eye opener. Such a great throughline in time specifically in the US (and a little bit outside the US, like how European influence made a big impact at key times). I have a feeling I’ll be returning to it a lot for reference in the years to come.
