Abstract

This essay reviews a volume of the Canadian Journal of Law and Society entitled, On the Margins of Trans Legal Change. The papers, given at a May 2019 conference, sit alongside each other, in unique and transparent conversation. And in diverse ways they take up the opportunity, raised in Samuel Singer’s article that “Telling some of trans people’s legal stories also helps render visible the trans legal subject, which, albeit constituted within the narrative constraints of the legal system, brings us closer to centring trans people as legal actors.” This review draws on interconnected threads between the pieces, paying attention, as the journal volume does, to the diverse stories of trans peoples, many of whom are living in the margins of Canadian society, to shine an inclusive light on the plurality of their issues, stories, and lived experiences.
