Summary
This week on the TransLash Podcast, we go back and bring you the best segments from our first year with this lookback. As always, we start with a moment of trans joy, hearing Tyler Rodriguez’s palpable glee that comes from helping other trans people feel more comfortable in their bodies through a binder exchange program. Then, Debi Jackson, a former conservative Southern Baptist turned trans rights advocate, joins Imara to take a peek into the mentality of the Christian Right to learn how we might get them in our side. Plus, we hear from, Isa Noyola, deputy Director of an organization centering Latinx people in social justice movements called Mijente to discuss her work around abolishing systems that oppress trans immigrant communities of color.
