Abstract
This chapter is a reflection on teaching as a trans person and as a cartoonist. It focuses largely on two pedagogical practices: coming out and using drawing in the non-art classroom. Both are embodied acts that involve risk-taking and invite trust. They offer the possibility of community-building radical self-actualization in the classroom. The chapter considers how a trans identity underscores a visceral experience of transformation that can inform the kind of radical transformation that is needed in higher education.
