2. Gender Queer (Part 2: Close Reading)
From Rogue Librarians · 01:00:51
Show by Rogue Librarians
We do a close reading of Maia Kobabe's Gender Queer. We discuss our opinions of the graphic memoir's characterization, themes, and significance. Please see Episode 1 for a discussion of why the book has been banned recently. Trigger warning: we mentioned the high suicide rate for trans teens again from 32:00 to 32:15. A note: the quotation we mentioned from the Washington Post was from an Op-Ed by Maia Kobabe on October 29, 2021. A few of the sources mentioned in this episode: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/10/29/schools-are-banning-my-book-queer-kids-need-queer-stories/ https://www.hrc.org/resources/sexual-orientation-and-gender-identity-terminology-and-definitions https://itgetsbetter.org/glossary/asexual-or-ace/ Thanks to Chris for our music and to Lizzie for our audio editing (for all of our episodes)!
