Research:
Dr. Nael Bhanji is a critical race and trans studies theorist whose research draws upon psychoanalysis and affect theory in order to explore articulations of necropolitics, racialization, and counter-terrorism within an increasingly globalized trans movement. His work appears in Transgender Migrations: The Bodies, Borders, and Politics of Transition, The Transgender Studies Reader 2, Trans Studies Quarterly 4.1, Canadian Ethnic Studies, and The Equity Myth: Racialization and Indigeneity at Canadian Universities. Dr. Bhanji is presently working on his monograph entitled “Trans Necrointimacies: Race and the Chalky Affects of Trans Memorialization” and is cross-affiliated with York University’s Center for Feminist Research where he is the 2018-2019 Visiting Scholar in Sexuality Studies.
