Important Voices at a Critical Point in History
What the Trans are an important group within the trans community, reporting on trans culture, news, issues and threats. Unfortunately we live in a dark era where a rising number of people are seeking to harm the trans community. This wonderful team work hard across all media to ensure that Trans voices are heard; That Trans people are made safer and that when evil is on the rise, Trans folk know what is happening and how to react. This podcast is an important part of that multimedia effort to protect the trans community. The hosts Ashleigh and Michelle are fantastic activists and journalists who work tirelessly to support and promote trans people. Their focus is purely on what improves the lives of transgender people and what protects them from the relentless abuse they endure. Everything they do is 5 stars.
