J.K. Rowling posted a haunting selfie on her super yacht, smoking a cigar and drink in hand, in celebration of the UK Supreme Court Ruling that defines a woman as someone born biologically female, thereby excluding trans women. In calling it “TERF VE Day” Rowling aligns herself with the rhetoric of fascist politicians but also with the deeply transphobe history of Anti-Trans Movements. In her book Enemy Feminists, author Sophie Lewis lays out not only the history of TERFs but also other troubling currents in feminism, which at times veered into colonialist, racist, pro-police, pro-nazi territory. In order to deepen our anti-fascist, -capitalist, -colonialist, -racist, trans-inclusive, etc. feminism we need to understand these enemy feminisms.
Know Your Enemies.
Know Your Enemy Feminisms.
