This is the first introductory textbook intended for
transgender/trans studies at the undergraduate level. The book can
also be used for related courses in LGBTQ, queer, and
gender/feminist studies. It encompasses and connects global
contexts, intersecting identities, historic and contemporary
issues, literature, history, politics, art, and culture. Ardel
Haefele-Thomas embraces the richness of intersecting identities-how
race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, nation, religion, and
ability have cross-influenced to shape the transgender experience
and trans culture across and beyond the binary. Written by an
accomplished teacher with experience in a wide variety of higher
learning institutions, this new text inspires readers to explore
not only contemporary transgender issues and experiences but also
the global history of gender diversity through the ages.
Introduction to Transgender Studies features: -A welcoming approach
that creates a safe space for a wide range of students, from those
who have never thought about gender issues to those who identify as
transgender, trans, nonbinary, agender, and/or gender expansive.
-Writings from the Community essays that relate the chapter theme
to the lived experiences of trans and LGB people and allies from
different parts of the world. -Key concepts, film and media
suggestions, topics for discussion, activities, and ideas for
writing and research to engage students and serve as a review at
exam time. -Instructors' resources that will be available that
include key teaching points with discussion questions, activities,
research projects, tips for using the media suggestions, PowerPoint
presentations, and sample syllabi for various course
configurations. Intended for introductory transgender, LGBTQ+, or
gender studies courses through upper-level electives related to the
expanding field of transgender studies, this text has been
successfully class-tested in community colleges and public and
private colleges and universities.
