Leslie Feinberg also wrote a very good book on Cuba, ranging from pre-colonial history to the early 20th century, to the revolution, the UMAP camps, the HIV crisis and the rough present it's free to read here

Two years ago a Hexbear mod (transcomrade69) harassed me (by calling out my username among many) into reading Leslie Feinberg's Trans Liberation : Beyond Blue and Pink.

Possibly one of the most significant events in altering the trajectory of my entire life.

Yes, we can be too rambunctious at times. Yes I view present politics and past history through a lens of dialectical and historical materialism.

Yes we will likely have significant contradictions on many issues which are impossible to resolve through the Internet where we've already entrenched our positions. But were you on my verandah with a good duriff maybe we'd get somewhere.

I think both communities will regret this and broadly the future looks bleak for everyone, but extra bleak for Trans and Non-binary folk everywhere.

Hi everybody! I have joined here from Hexbear. I'm not going to vote in anything. I hope we all stay federated but if not I now have two places I can post at from work.
