Transphobia in Olÿmpia: The Insufficiency of the Judicial “Cistem” in Guaranteeing Access to Public Spaces by Dissident Bodies

Abstract

In public spaces, the circulation and permanence of dissident bodies is often made unviable. Institutionalized violence and persecution have increased, setting back considerable advances in the LGBTI + agenda. Olÿmpia is a bar dedicated to allowing these subjects to occupy spaces in the city, and to supporting their employability. This study examines cases of transphobia at the bar to reflect on the effectiveness of judicialization and public policies focused on this population segment. A legal-sociological approach is used, based on queer, decolonial and transfeminist theories, to interpret these "cistem" manifestations.
