In this final instalment of our Field Notes series from the Thinking Trans / Trans Thinking conference, Anna and Kristin are joined by conference organizer Amy Marvin for a conversation on trans philosophy, feminist philosophy, humour, and what it means to gather together. We feature conference participants Riley Lewicki and Alanah Mortlock, to explore what it means to create philosophical spaces that begin from the assumption that trans people exist — and that their lives, relationships, and ways of thinking matter.

Amy discusses her forthcoming monograph Trans Fascination, her work on curiosity and “curiotization,” and the complexities of trans visibility. 

Plus: favourite Golden Girl returns, conference joy, trans film, (Kristin's) “weaponized philosopher incompetence,” role playing on planes, and why “all the good shit is happening” in Black trans philosophy.
