Leslie Feinberg: A transgender warrior.

Ένα βίντεο που πολύ χαίρομαι που το βρίσκω. Αρκετά μεγάλο μεν, ξεπερνά την μία ώρα, αξίζει όμως να το δείτε. Η Leslie Feinberg, υπήρξε και είναι μία από τις πιο δυναμικές ακτιβίστριες για τα δικαιώματα των διαφυλικών και γενικότερα για τα ανθρώπινα δικαιωμάτα και συγγραφέας του Stone butch blues (είναι υπό έκδοση από τον Πολύχρωμο Πλανήτη), του Transgender Warriors και άλλων βιβλίων.

The Center for Culture, Gender, and Sexuality is pleased to announce that world-renowned social activist and author Leslie Feinberg will be visiting Sonoma State University on April 26th at 7:30 p.m. in the Cooperage. Feinberg's first novel, Stone Butch Blues (1993), has received a wildly popular response in the United States and has been translated into Chinese, German, Italian, Dutch, Turkish, Slovenian and Hebrew. Feinberg's historical work, Transgender Warriors: Making History from Joan of Arc to RuPaul is the first analysis of the historical roots of transgender oppression and Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink or Blue (Beacon) contains a compilation of speeches by the author with written portraits by other trans activists. Drag King Dreams, Feinberg's second published novel, was released in March 2006. Feinberg has toured the country, speaking at Pride rallies and protest marches, and at scores of colleges and universities. Currently Feinberg is a national leader of the Workers World Party, and a managing editor and political journalist of the Workers World newspaper.
