A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Original title: "Cuerpos en resistencia: experiencias trans en ciudad de México y Bogotá" (Bodies in resistance: trans experiences in Mexico City and Bogotá) by Manuel Roberto Escobar Cajamarca.
The body is mainly a scenario of power, which becomes a multiplicity of tensions and resistances subscribed to specific contexts. In particular, this work deals with the bodies of people who move through gender, and the political dimension of these experiences in Latin America, in two of its main cities: Mexico City and Bogotá.
The importance of these subjectivities that strive for what a body can be in our contexts, has to do with the fact that the body goes beyond individual and social expression and constitutes a node of identity, with which the construction of the body allows us to specify our own sameness, difference, as well as perceive it in the other.
