Trans Femme Futures: Abolitionist Ethics for Transfeminist Worlds
With Nat Raha and Mijke van der Drift.
In our first episode of 2025, we discuss the themes of the new book, Trans Femme Futures: Abolitionist Ethics for Transfeminist Worlds.
We talk about what is entailed by trans and femme practices, the value of critical theory, and how trans liberation moves beyond the liberal call for rights. We discuss solidarity, abolitionism, and why it’s vital to sit with and work through complicity and friction within our movements.
