What is it like being a mixed race, non binary anthropologist delving into today's world of "anarchist organizing, feminism and queer radicalism converged with partying and artmaking?" McGlotten's book Dragging: Or, In the Drag of a Queer Life is set mostly in Berlin and Israel. They center not only men performing some version of femininity but also two drag kings and two wildly radical cis gendered women artists. The book is a fascinating mashup of memoir, interview, ethnographic observation, and cultural theory, following on the work of José Munoz, Marlon Baily, Lauren Berlant, Eve Sedgwick and others. McGlotten traces the origins of today's drag scene from the performances that I documented just before Stonewall in Mother Camp, through the ball scene in Paris is Burning and takes care to set their performers and drag scenes in relation to and contrast with Ru Paul's commercially successful Drag Race.

Riveting, beautiful, and necessary, this book is in no small part a meditation on failure and on what happens when life gets in the way of research. The reality of living in a body-any body, but especially an unwell body, a marginalized body-is one that academia has long refused to confront but can no longer afford to ignore in these fascist times. McGlotten's "dragging" methods are confrontational and gritty and refuse to shrink in the face of calls for civility and respectability that have become commonplace in U.S. university culture. It is life-affirming work.
