Description:
Nepantla Squared maps the lives of two transgender mestiz@s to chart the ways race, gender, sex, ethnicity, and capital function differently in different times. Linda Heidenreich coins the term nepantla² to mark figures who moved between cultures and genders.
Review Quotes: "This queer Chicanx history project is everything such a project should be: a brilliant analysis with fresh and illuminating ideas and approaches, an unearthing of hidden trans stories, and an intellectual exploration of trans mestiz@ identity."--Norma E. Cantú, Norine R. and T. Frank Murchison Professor of the Humanities at Trinity University-- (3/3/2020 12:00:00 AM)
