 reflection on the state of women’s sports\, as a category and a practice. T
 his talk revolves around the harassment and exclusion of the great South Af
 rican runner Caster Semenya from her events and opens out to reckon with th

 n of fascism and a broad assault on trans life.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
