Hello, current affairs listeners. This is Editor-in-Chief Nathan J. Robinson. We're going to get to the

episode in a moment, but I just wanted to announce beforehand that you might all be interested in

the current affairs writing class that is going to be held on Zoom, Saturday, November 19th. This is an upcoming fundraiser

for current affairs, but it's also a very practical class on how to improve your writing,

how to get it published, and even how to launch independent media projects like current affairs.

I'm going to share with all of you what I have learned and what I wish I knew when I was

a freelance writer and tickets are going to benefit current affairs and independent magazine

with no advertisers or investors that survives entirely through reader support.

I think it's going to be a great class.

You can look on Eventbrite where we're selling tickets and you can see some of the reviews we had the last time we did it.

We hope you'll consider taking it.

Hope to see some of you there.

Thanks very much. On with the show.

Welcome to current affairs. My name is Nathan Robinson.

I am the editor-in-chief of Current Affairs magazine.

My guest today is the writer Sean Faye.

She has written for The Guardian, the Independent Vice, and other places,

and her first book is now out from Verso in the United States.

It is the transgender issue.

Transjustice is justice for all about which which the legendary Judith Butler has said it is a monumental work and utterly convincing crystal clear in its understanding of how the world should be

Sean Faye thank you so much for joining us today on Cardiffares oh thank. Oh, thank you for having me. I'm really grateful to be here.

I want to start by reading just a little excerpt of your book.
