Eli Erlick presents Before Gender: Lost Stories from Trans History, 1850-1950
Internationally acclaimed trans activist, author, and educator, Eli Erlick presents Before Gender at Greenlight! Bold and visionary, Erlick's debut explores the trailblazing lives of 30 trans people who radically change everything you’ve been told about transgender history.
Highlighting influential individuals from 1850–1950 who are all but unknown today, Erlick shares 30 remarkable stories from romance to rebellion and mystery to murder; narratives that chronicle the grit, joy, and survival of trans people long before gender became an everyday term.
Erlick reads from and discusses the book, before an audience Q&A and signing.
