The book Trans Hirstory in 99 Objects is a project of artist Chris E. Vargas's Museum of Trans Hirstory & Art (MOTHA), a conceptual art project that is "forever under construction." Exploring trans art, activism, artifacts, and resistance across more than four centuries, Trans Hirstory in 99 Objects does away with the patriarchy and instead charts a gender-neutral, trans-centric hirstory of art.

Vargas is joined by book contributors, editors, and artists Zackary Drucker, David Evans Frantz, Edgar Fabián Frías, Raquel Gutiérrez, Christina Linden, Amos Mac, and Uri McMillan, to celebrate, discuss, and perform trans and non-binary magic; celebrity and activism; and trans-masc hirstories.
