If Jenner could legitimately identify as a woman, could Dolezal legitimately identify as black? Taking the controversial pairing of (S2(Btransgender(S3 (Band (S2(Btransracial(S3 (Bas his starting point, Rogers Brubaker shows how gender and race, long understood as stable, inborn, and unambiguous, have in the past few decades opened upin different ways and to different degreesto the forces of change and choice.

Yet while few accepted Dolezals claim to be black, racial identities are becoming more fluid as ancestryincreasingly understood as mixedloses its authority over identity, and as race and ethnicity, like gender, come to be understood as something we do, not just something we have. By rethinking race and ethnicity through the multifaceted lens of the transgender experienceencompassing not just a movement from one category to another but positions between and beyond existing categoriesBrubaker underscores the malleability, contingency, and arbitrariness of racial categories.
