Transforming: The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians by Austen Hartke
5.0
If you’ve been doing trans activism for a while, especially among Christians, this’ll feel very familiar to you, but with personal perspectives (from a variety of guest interviewees) added in.
If you’re all new to this, you’ll see how to weigh the fruits of unaffirming theology (depression and death) versus affirming theology (joy and thriving) and how that factors into Jesus’ promise of abundant life.

How Not to Get Shot: And Other Advice From White People by Doug Moe, D.L. Hughley
5.0
If you can’t tell from the parenthetical in the title, this book is a sarcastic riff on all the bad advice white people give every time a Black person gets shot by the cops. Comply with orders. Comply with what the cop meant, not what the cop said. Comply quickly, but not too quickly. Comply slowly, but not too slowly. That sort of thing.
The “other advice” sections go on about choosing a name and how to dress and all the other things people who look like me like to tut tut about.
Highly recommend. It’s a very quick read.
