Keywords: research collection, studies, gender, political theory, queer theory, social constructs Genderqueer: Voices From Beyond the Sexual Binary. Through the use of Wilchins’s own memoirs, readers form a connection and feel the enigmatic and sympathetic tone that leaves you feeling hopeful for the future and the acceptance that is so passionately wished for. In such excerpts as “Video Tape” you can feel the anger that is expressed in regards to such concepts such as “passing” and being told that someone is born in the “wrong body”. It is a unique collection of historical, anecdotal and often times, tear-jerking and side-splitting accounts, that tear down the misconceptions that some may have surrounding gender constructs and binaries.
These selected works cater to the queer and trans community, while still educating the cis population on the struggles still being faced. Riki Wilchins is a transgender activist icon, who has been on the forefront of LGBTQ+ politics for a quarter of a century now.
