From contributors to The Conversation, a look at gender diversity
in the twenty-first century and the intricate and intersecting
challenges faced by trans and nonbinary people. With media
amplifying the voices of anti-trans legislators and critics, it is
important to turn to the stories, research, and expertise of trans
and nonbinary people in order to understand the reality of their
experiences. In The Conversation on Gender Diversity, editor Jules
Gill-Peterson assembles essential essays from The Conversation U.S.
by experts on gender diversity. The essays guide readers through
seldom-covered aspects of transgender history and present an
overview of the social and political barriers that disenfranchise
trans people and attempt to remove them from public life. As these
essays collectively show, trans and nonbinary people may be forced
to be the face of gender and its diversity, but the cultural,
political, and social realities of gender connect-and
subject-everyone. Despite these challenges, there is an immense
culture of love and support across the queer community that is
bolstered by activists and allies working against transphobic
attacks. Trans and gender-diverse youth are growing up in a world
filled with ever-increasing hurdles and rising danger, even with
the contemporary public recognition of trans life in culture and
media. But they are not facing these challenges alone. The Critical
Conversations series collects relevant essays from top scholars on
timely topics, including water, biotechnology, gender diversity,
gun culture, and more, originally published on the independent news
site The Conversation U.S. Contributors: Robert L. Abreu, Catherine
