Introduction: Thinking brown and trans together -- Dolorous proximities of race and transsexuality : reading the Gwen Araujo archive -- Examining transphobic violence and the politics of valuation : the death of Angie Zapata and the incarceration of the hateful other -- Fleshing out the Chicana/x butch and Chicano/x FTM borderlands -- The wound makes the man : trans figuring Chicano masculinities -- Coda: Reading with the x.
"Arguing that brown transgender narratives are frequently silenced and erased in US queer, transgender, and Latinx and Chicanx cultural politics, Galarte considers the contexts in which these narratives appear; how they circulate; and how they are reproduced in politics, sexual cultures, and racialized economies. Seeking to restore personhood and agency to these subjects, Francisco J. Galarte advances "brown trans figuration" as a theoretical framework to describe how transness and brownness coexist within the larger queer, trans, and Latinx historical experiences"-- Provided by publisher.
