Our Work Is Everywhere: An Illustrated Oral History of Queer and Trans Resistance by Syan Rose

emotional hopeful reflective

4.0

This is a neat collection of short pieces and interviews with trans people doing many different kinds of work, especially that which goes unacknowledged as "real" work. It is really beautiful to see so many different kinds of trans people being passionate about what they do -- and seeing the diversity in what that can be. The art is really beautiful. While the choice to do the words in more handwriting slowed my reading down, I do think that was a benefit actually for me (but may be more difficult for folks who are dyslexic and the like). I think naming this an "oral history" may make this seem like a deeper scope than this actually is (like I said, these are pretty short pieces). But I really enjoyed this.
