What do you know about the “I” in “LGBTI”? On this week’s episode, we talk with Irene, an activist with Intersex Russia, who talks about her experiences being intersex – including how a Buzzfeed video (really!) changed her life.
As mentioned in the episode, here’s Irene’s article, "I Discovered I'm Intersex from the Buzzfeed Video," along with the original Buzzfeed video, "What It's Like to Be Intersex."
Check out Intersex Russia and InterACT's websites. The two 2017 reports mentioned in our conversation are:
• Human Rights Watch and InterACT, "I Want to Be Like Nature Made Me: Medically Unnecessary Surgeries on Intersex Children in the US"
• Amnesty International, "First, Do No Harm: Ensuring the Rights of Children Born Intersex"
