Lareine's ghost is haunting me.
Writing on imposters and the (dis)placement of trans history within Austrian cultural memory and am stunned by how she appears (and disappears) over and over again.

Designing in-class assignments for my trans histories class is my favorite activity rn. We start by reassessing Jacob Hale's Rules, discussing what they tell us about the past, how they translate into the present, and what we want to adapt for our class. Plus photos from the Digital Trans Archive!

Finalized the syllabus and feeling super excited and honored to be teaching what I believe is the first seminar on trans studies & histories at Uni Bern featuring so many scholars I deeply admire. Next up: trying not to feel like a dinosaur while figuring out the online learning platform 🦖
