Description

Please join Dean Elizabeth Kronk Warner for her monthly dean’s book review. The book to be reviewed will be, Beyond the Gender Binary by Alok Vaid-Menon. The book is part of a series called, Pocket Change Collective which was born out of a need for space. Space to think. Space to connect. Space to be yourself. This is your invitation to join us for a book review and panel discussion.

In Beyond the Gender Binary, poet, artist, and LGBTQIA+ rights advocate Alok Vaid-Menon deconstructs, demystifies, and reimagines the gender binary.

Pocket Change Collective is a series of small books with big ideas from today’s leading activists and artists. In this installment, Beyond the Gender Binary, Alok Vaid-Menon challenges the world to see gender not in black and white, but in full color. Taking from their own experiences as a gender-nonconforming artist, they show us that gender is a malleable and creative form of expression. The only limit is your imagination.
