摘要

对酷儿和跨性别痛苦、复原力、护理和生命体征的研究,总是对感觉值得活下去的生命和感觉可以死去的死亡的艰难和痛苦的表达进行调查。弹性的概念指的是克服困难的有条件状态,忽略了充分包含我们对风险、脆弱性和生活的理解。这篇文章探讨了总部位于华盛顿特区的跨性别活动家如何讨论共同的联盟劳工,将其视为在一个明显暴力的当代时刻赋予可行的生命——或者在某些情况下,他们所说的死亡值得一死。尽管卫生研究人员长期以来一直注意到联盟在更好地代表研究需求方面发挥的有益作用,但本文关注的是个人如何满足他们的需求,而不是通过单独和规范的恢复策略,而是在联盟行动的范围内和通过联盟行动的空间。这种激进关怀和可行生活的方法鼓励我们重新思考跨性别生活的死政治——被标记为道德可疑和本质上可抛弃的生活——如何与本文发展的跨性别生命概念共存。最终,接受跨性别生命的概念不仅仅是拒绝或否认跨性别权利的正常化或商品化项目,而是对生活体验异质性的暴力同质化期望的警惕。

Beyond Resilience
Studies of queer and trans suffering, resilience, care, and vitalities are invariably also investigations into the difficult and painful articulations of lives that feel worth living and deaths that feel okay dying. The notion of resiliency, referring to a conditional state of overcoming difficult situations, neglects to fully encompass our understandings of risk, vulnerability, and life. This article explores the ways in which Washington, DC–based trans activists discuss shared coalitional labor as constituting that which renders viable life—or, in some cases, what they describe as deaths worth dying—in a contemporary moment that is distinctly violent. While health researchers have long noted the beneficial role that a coalition serves in better representing needs in research, this article focuses on how individuals meet their needs not through solitary and normative resilience strategies but within and through spaces of coalitional action. This approach to radical care and viable life encourages us to rethink how a necropolitics of trans life—lives marked as morally suspect and intrinsically disposable—coexists with a notion of trans vitalities that this article develops. Ultimately, embracing the concept of trans vitalities is not simply a refusal or disavowal of projects of normalization or the commodifiability of trans rights but, rather, a vigilance toward the violently homogenizing expectations of the heterogeneity of lived experience.
