Interview with Alexandra Juhasz, August 25, 2023
Dr. Marty Fink (he/they) is an associate professor at Toronto Metropolitan University. Fink is the author of Forget Burial: HIV Kinship, Disability, and Queer/Trans Narratives of Care (Rutgers UP; Lambda finalist in LGBTQ non-fiction, 2020) which investigates HIV activism past and present through the lens of caregiving. Fink’s forthcoming research finds parallels between the historical invention of safer sex by queer/trans communities and contemporary responses to COVID to map trans desires and sexual practices across pandemics. Fink’s academic and activist projects strive to widen the scope of trans care toward prison abolition and a free Palestine.
