ABSTRACT
In this chapter, I consider how necropolitical geospatial policies regulate, in both expulsion and discard, trans feminine bodies 2 of colour on the streets of Washington, DC. These policies, such as the prostitution free zone (PFZ), serve to illuminate how exclusionary practices reflect gendered, sexualized, raced and embodied elements of neoliberal citizenship demands. Specifically, the geo-social function of the PFZ reveals how necropolitical ideologies articulate with space and homo(necro)nationalism, wherein the visibility of trans (feminine) bodies of colour in economically viable space is articulated as a threat to safety and the presence of criminality.
