Wholesale GenderFail, A Decade of Queer and Trans Liberatory Writings

GenderFail, A Decade of Queer and Trans Liberatory Writings is an anthology publication featuring 17 essays spanning a decade of work by GenderFail Press. This book has been risograph printed for the first time in the GenderFail Reader Series (the prelude to this anniversary publication). These 130 pages encompass the best of our ongoing work. If you are new to GenderFail, this is the perfect publication to start exploring our work. From our preface to the book: At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we released our first GenderFail Reader. This first edition compiled essays from previously published zines and other written essays by me (Be Oakley) and my partner, Yvonne LeBien. We have published four volumes of our GenderFail Reader series in the last three years. This book you are currently holding is the capstone of all four volumes, including essays, artworks, and ideas that have helped shape GenderFail over the last 10 years of the project. These essays speak to the interests, research, and passions that drive GenderFail and highlight the powerful agency behind self-publishing. I hope that these essays inspire you to future actions, dreams, hopes, and new worlds that center people and communities fighting for a world without colonialism, white supremacy, capitalism, ableism, and heteronormative oppression."
