It's not really a Friday, and Friday follows are not really any more a thing, but I would like to suggest that you follow @sydneeisanelf if you don't already. Her work on race and fantasies of national identity is brave, brilliant and could not be more urgent.

For a recent publication, check out 'Racing gender to the edge of the world: decoding the transmasculine Amazon cannibal in early modern travel writing', in Simone Chess Colby Gordon & Will Fisher's Trans Studies JEMCS. muse.jhu.edu/issue/42946

For Sydnee's journalism, see her work in Prospect prospectmagazine.co.uk/author/sydnee-…

For Sydnee's creative work, see Quail Bell Magazine, Drunken Boat Journal and Bettering American Poetry, full details of which are available here racebackwards.wordpress.com/about/

And finally, you can hear @sydneeisanelf talk about her work on A Bit Lit here abitlit.co/conversations/…
