Our next book "Beyond the Gender Binary" by Alok Vaid-Menon Alok Vaid-Menon challenges the world to see gender not in black and white, but in full color in their book, Beyond the Gender Binary. Taking from their own experiences as a gender-nonconforming artist, they show us that gender is a malleable and creative form of expression. The only limit is your imagination.
