- Summary
- "What does it mean for trans people to show up for one another, to care deeply for one another? How have failures of care shaped trans lives? What care practices have trans subjects and communitites cultivated in the wake of transphobia and systemic forms of trans exclusion? 'Trans Care' is a critical intervention in how care labor and care ethics have been thought, arguing that dominant modes of conceiving and critquing the politics and distribution of care entrench normative and cis-centric familial structures and gendered arrangements. A serious consideration of trans survival and flourishing requires a radical rethinking of how care operates." -- Back cover.
