We are survivors.
We were subjected to dehumanizing practices by people who sought our erasure. We believe telling our stories is both powerful and political. This edited collection brings together the experiences of those who have been subjected to queer conversion therapy - it is an effort to expose conversion practices for what they are - pseudoscientific, bogus, ineffective, and wildly traumatic - and to recognise and listen to survivors. With contributions from Gregory Elsasser-Chavez, Chaim Levin, Lexie Bean, Syre Klenke, and many more from across the LGBTQ+ spectrum - this is an attempt to ensure that what happened within these pages cannot - and will not - happen to future generations.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Jessica Kingsley PublishersISBN-13:9781805011323ISBN-10:1805011324UPC:9781805011323Book Category:Social ScienceBook Subcategory:LGBTQ+ Studies, Sexual Abuse & HarassmentBook Topic:Transgender StudiesSize:8.55 x 5.43 x 0.46 inchesWeight:0.5203Product ID:SC5J74ZE00
