Wonder Woman 1984: The Junior Novel by Calliope Glass

This book draws upon empirical data to offer a fresh and unique perspective on hate crime victimisation, using transphobic hate crime as a case study. It adopts the lens of 'visibility' as a way of understanding hate crime victimisation and to challenge dominant theoretical and conceptual perspectives of hate crime. In adopting this lens, key aspects of victimisation are explored, including the hierarchical nature of hate crime victimisation that afford visibility to particular types of victimisation and to particular groups of people to make them 'legitimate' victims. In challenging these notions, this book highlights the pervasive, everyday nature of much hate crime and introduces the concept of 'micro-crimes' as a way to conceptualise the nature of victimisation that is often overshadowed by discussions around 'microaggressions' and more socially recognisable forms of 'hate crime'. Key ideas relating to space, place and identity performance are drawn upon throughout these analyses and discussions to provide a nuanced overview and conceptualisation of hate crime victimisation.
Calliope Glass is a children's book writer and editor in New York City. Her favorite Star Wars character is Mon Mothma. She likes to solve crossword puzzles, read comic books, and sing very loudly.
Caitlin Kennedy lives in San Francisco with her husband, mere miles from the redwoods that inspired the forests of Endor. She has yet to see an Ewok.

Katie Cook is an illustrator and writer who has been creating work for Star Wars professionally for almost a decade, and unprofessionally with crayons since the mid-1980's. She lives in Michigan with her husband, her daughters and lots of Star Wars toys. . . er, collectibles.
