About this item

by Jules Gill-Peterson (Author)

The trans panic has not always been with us: it was invented

Award-winning historian Jules Gill-Peterson's richly detailed narrative takes us from New York, London, and Paris to the colonial districts of the British Raj, the Philippines, and Hawai'i to tell a richly detailed story of the emergence of trans misogyny.
