Eli Clare, a prominent trans scholar and activist, working at the intersections of disability, queer, and gender studies,

the infamous Supreme Court case Buck v. Bell. The case, declared involuntary sterilization laws constitutional in 1927, was built upon the body of Carrie Buck, a poor white woman from Virginia. Using history, poetry, images, and imagination, Eli Clare explores how disability, class, gender, and whiteness often collide and asks questions about the relationship between bodies on one hand and law, history, and metaphor on the other.
