From Archive Books:
In Pedagogies of Travesti Liberation, Maria Clara Araújo dos Passos examines the interplay of education, identity, and liberation in Brazil’s travesti community. She critiques traditional pedagogical frameworks that marginalize gender nonconforming narratives and highlights the effects of systemic discrimination on travestis’ psychosocial well-being. Pedagogies of Travesti Liberation advocates for inclusive educational practices and emphasizes the need for affirmative curricula. Newly translated from Portuguese, this work contributes towards connecting political struggles globally and navigating the complexities of translation— particularly of the term ‘travesti’—across various geographical and political contexts, featuring a conversation between Araújo dos Passos and translator Natália Affonso.
The book was edited by Daniel Neugebauer and published by Haus der Kulturen der Welt. Gallery Print provided printing and binding. Anna Diagne and Chiara Figone did the design and layout for Archive Books, using Sature for headlines and cover, Aktiv Grotesk for subheadings, and Sabon for the body text.
