Whether we encounter boundaries at national borders, bathrooms, or birth certificates, our personal safety and wellbeing is at stake. Gender-diverse and queer non-binary people, have bodies, brains, and hearts that challenge traditional ways of being male, female, gay, straight, Black, white, good, and bad. These practitioners—at the interfaces of government policy, architecture, queer art curation, group work, sex work, and tattooing—explore cancel culture and free speech, considering what it takes to be brave. In our current times of global conflict and binary oppositions, they address the urgent need for accessible and inclusive spaces everywhere. To listen and speak across the ideological voids that divide us, we must understand the differences that underpin our feelings of safety and discomfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Figures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart One: Safe Spaces\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: A Framework for Interpretation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Histories of Safe Spaces\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: The Safety Trap\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Bodies at Borders: Breaching the Binary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart Two: Safe Enough in Practice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Devising ‘Safe Enough’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Intimate Encounters\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Mediated Storytelling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart Three: Safety, Security and Risk\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Beneath the Surface—Embodiment and Passing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Queering the Binaries\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: How to be Brave (or Triggers to Watch Out For)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042640855383,"sku":"9781793618832","price":72.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781793618832.jpg?v=1750954971","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/queering-safe-spaces-being-brave-beyond-binaries-9781793618832","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
