So I feel like Lesile Feinberg did an amazing job going over the lost sacred history of transgender people. Of how the current order we live in hasn't always been and that transphobia is a result of rising class division. Also of how trans comrades have been in the front lines battling oppression and for both their own rights but also every oppressed peoples.

It took me like a week to read this but I highly recommend everyone to read it. Lesile Feinberg weaves personal narrative with history and tying together the lives of trans people to make a master piece that is hard to put down.

Here is where I found it and recommend everyone to check it out

I want to thank @futomes for suggesting this discussion thread. It would help maybe if we can get an audio version but I've no idea where to find.

I know it's not my my place to talk about trans issues with me being cis but I hope we can have a discussion here and maybe it will peak everyone's interests. I'll try my best not to dominate any conversations going on here.

Once again to any cis people here I highly recommend reading this book. It is very enlightening and helps to destroy old perceptions of the past and present while giving us direction for the future. It has pictures and stuff so you can get through it, don't be intimidated with it being 244 pages they go by fast.

Yo mods @marxisthayaca @Beatnik @TwilightLoki @Jarad @Gorn @Uncle_Hoe @TransComrade69 , politely requesting a sticky if possible.

    Check with mods to see about getting this post stickied in at least /books.

    Set a day (probably like a week or so) and a chapter/section range to shoot for discussions.

    It seemed to work alright when TC69 had their book reading/discussion project going several months ago.
