Burn the Binary!, Vol. 2

As laws targeting trans people multiply across America, especially targetingTransYouth, and gender freedom is thrust into the center of a politicalfirestorm, Burn the Binary, Vol. II arrives as a bold, necessary intervention.

In this searing and accessible collection of blistering essays, pioneeringactivist and writer Riki Wilchins dismantles the rigid gender norms that haveshaped our lives—and the right win conspiracy that endeavors to keep us rigidlyin place, or bring us back to the make-believe past. Drawing from decades onthe frontlines of queer and trans liberation, Wilchins refuses compromise,arguing that incremental inclusion isn’t enough when the very framework of thebinary is what’s broken.

Burn the Binary, Vol. II isn’t just a critique—it’s a call toaction. With clarity, wit, and unflinching courage, Wilchins urges us toimagine a future beyond "male” and "female,” where gender is self-determined,expansive, and free.

As lawmakers wage war on trans existence, this book reminds us: the fight isnot only to defend rights—but to redefine reality.
