Digital Transfeminism in Response to TERF critiques of the Trans Law in Spain
Get PDFFollowing Spain’s inclusion of the new Trans Law into national law in March of 2023, feminist discourse online has split between trans exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs) and transfeminists. Transfeminist involves the combination of feminist and trans activism in order to support both movements, while biologism, the lens used by TERFs, states that trans women cannot be real women, and thus cannot be part of the feminist movement, because of their biological differences from cis women. Due to the emergence of TERF critiques of the Trans Law, activists have been turning to transfeminism to defend the new law. Three activists in particular, Angela Ponce, Penélope Guerrero, and Elizabeth Duval, have shown transfeminist activism on Instagram. This paper examines the Instagram profiles of these three trans activists and ultimately concludes that the activists achieve, challenge, or move beyond traditional notions of femininity to confront biologism

Brother Philemon Stewart as Church Family Physician: Re-imagining a Portion of His “toiling, stormy, industrious, valuable life”
Get PDFAlthough Brother Philemon Stewart is perhaps best known for his part in the Era of Manifestations, he was also notorious for his opinionated and somewhat obstreperous personality, his volatile career of “promotion and then demotion,”1 his single-minded pursuit of dietary “progressive reform” and his staunch support of nonconventional health regimes such as Grahamism and hydrotherapy (or water cure).
Brother Philemon, however, also had a strong influence on the practice of medicine at New Lebanon: first, in his role as principal male instrument during the Era of Manifestations, and second, through his brief but little-known tenure as a Church Family physician in 1844.
Recent original research has uncovered new details with regards to this Shaker brother that may offer scholars a further understanding of his life and zealous personality. This presentation will focus on Stewart’s attempts to change medical practice at the Church Family Nurse Shop, and, through the use of contextual primary materials, seek to re-imagine a portion of his “toiling, stormy, industrious, valuable life.
