#TransStudies slash #QueerStudies scholars: do you have a fave paper on queer tokenism and representation?
My go-to for discussing the harms of tokenism is Davis, E. (2016). Typecasts, tokens, and spokespersons: A case for credibility excess as testimonial injustice. Hypatia, 31(3), 485-501 https://www.jstor.org/stable/44076488 — it is a brilliant paper, but I'd like to have something specifically about queer/trans folk if it exists

Very excited about this forthcoming publication – Queer Studies in English Language Education.
Quite a few people I know have contributed to this, and I'm excited both for them, and for the ELT industry to see what it has to say!
It's being published towards the end of January 2025.

Internet Hive Mind, I'm looking for scholars that theorize about disability influences on queer culture. Not how disabled queers are impacted by intersectional oppression or identity, nor how this intersection exists, but rather how overall queer culture is shaped by the presence of disabled sensibility. (I.E. a crip reading of queer culture)
SUNY Oneonta's English Department is searching for a t/t medievalist who can also teach queer literature. Please share! I am also happy to answer questions about the position.

Congrats to Xiomara Verenice Cervantes-Gómez! Her new book Bottoms Up: Queer Mexicanness and Latinx Performance is out now from NYU Press and offers a vibrant queer of color read of the imbrications of sexual and political power and ethics in the making of Mexican and Latinx identities. https://nyupress.org/9781479829163/bottoms-up/
