A workshop bringing together scholars, artists, archivists, activists in the Americas working on Trans* Studies

Organised by @PatricioSimone2 and Mir Yarfitz

Who is trans or travesti, non-binary or marica? Before these words were invented, how did gender-variant Latin Americans understand themselves?

Please join us for a two-day workshop discussing these questions on 7-8 July @UCLAmericas (online)
