Trans250: Trans Genocide in America

This month is the 250th anniversary of the United States, and, in this episode, we’re talking about an uncomfortable truth about our nation. In March of this year, the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention issued its third Red Flag Warning for a genocide against trans people in the US. Today, we’re hearing from Émilie Weidl of the Lemkin Institute to help us understand why they’re sounding the alarm. Then, we’ll hear from Anne Ogborn, the Director of Trans Rescue. Trans Rescue is an organization that helps trans people emigrate to safer countries. This week’s Trans Joy features Kate Isett, who left her home state of Texas to seek asylum in Barcelona, Spain, and founded LGBTQ FAR to help others who want to move abroad, too.

Unpacking the SCOTUS Trans Sports Decision

Dylan Mulvaney Is Done Being Palatable

What does it mean to be seen by millions and still be figuring out who you are? For multi-hyphenate artist Dylan Mulvaney, it means letting go of the pressure to be palatable. Dylan was already a touring theater actress when she first gained global attention on TikTok with her viral series Days of Girlhood and has worn many hats since, including a playwright and now, a Broadway performer. This week on the TransLash Podcast, Imara Jones sits down with Dylan for a wide-ranging conversation about her journey from internet sensation to starring as Anne Boleyn Six the Musical and what it means to step into her next chapter on her own terms. Dylan opens up about what people often get wrong about her rise, how she’s always been a theater kid at heart and in practice and how social media both created opportunity and challenged her sense of self. Together, Imara and Dylan explore the tension between visibility and privacy, the pressure to be “palatable,” and what it means to move from people-pleasing to self-definition while exploring why softness and earnestness can be powerful in a cynical world. This week’s Trans Joy features Ticket Knowlton, a theater director, dramaturg and dancer from Atlanta, Georgia.

Trans Period Pride

This Pride season, why not take a moment to feel proud of your period? For the past four years, Mass NOW, a feminist organization in Massachusetts, has been working with other groups to organize Trans Period Pride, a space for open and honest conversation about what it’s like to be a trans person who menstruates. This year, the event has, unsurprisingly, attracted the ire of right-wing news. But this only highlights the importance of these conversations—and of period equity for all genders. This episode features a conversation with two of the organizers of Trans Period Pride: Mass NOW Executive Director Sasha Goodfriend and Deputy Director of the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition Kelsey Grunstra. This week’s Trans Joy features Melani Midas, a Caribbean-American fashion designer and DJ.

The Queens of Queens

Today, we're speaking with Rula Avila Munoz, the host of Las Reinas De Queens - which translates to The Queens of Queens. It's a 10-part podcast series from Radio Ambulante Studios and iHeartRadio and brings you the story of the vibrant, long-standing trans community that has flourished for decades along Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, New York. At the center of the community was Lorena Borjas, an activist and mother figure who helped generations of trans women navigate life in New York City. When Lorena died in 2020, the community was left with a difficult question: What happens when the person who took care of everyone is gone? You can watch this episode on youtube! https://www.youtube.com/translashmedia Listen to Las Reinas De Queens at https://radioambulante.org/audio/central-las-reinas-de-queens-santa-madre-reina and find English transcripts at https://centralpodcast.audio/ Follow Rula Avila Munoz on Instagram (@rulaamunoz) This week's Trans Joy features Juno Hill, a Maryland-based DJ.

Rep. Leigh Finke Is Fighting from the Inside

This week, Imara sits down for a vulnerable conversation with Minnesota State Representative Leigh Finke, the first trans woman ever elected to the MN House of Representatives. In her time in office, Finke has focused on policies that expand housing and healthcare access and cement civil rights protections, most notably a trans refuge law that includes some of the strongest legal protections for gender-affirming care in the nation. But Rep. Finke’s time in office has been filled with turmoil. In June of last year, her friend and MN House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed in a politically motivated murder. And, more recently, Minneapolis was besieged by ICE, which resulted in the killing of two citizens. In this episode, Rep. Finke gets real about how hard it is to be a trans legislator in today’s political environment and what motivates her to keep fighting. This week’s Trans Joy features Trina Tate, an educator who develops mindfulness curricula for public school students.

Private, Separate, and Unequal

In this final episode of our season, journalist Imara Jones and her team investigate how the anti-trans attacks on schools are part of a larger strategy to dismantle public education, and it’s being driven by the most powerful coalition on the right. Join her as she learns how the plan to privatize education is flourishing in Arizona and starting to gain momentum across the country. The ultimate goal: use vouchers to destroy public schools — a major pillar of democracy. But the outcome of these efforts is far from a foregone conclusion. The interviews with Tami Staas and Marisol Garcia in this episode were conducted before the assassination of Charlie Kirk. To learn more, visit translash.org/antitranshatemachine.

Supreme Court Sets Dangerous Precedent on Conversion Therapy

On March 31st of this year, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a therapist in Colorado who argued that the state’s ban on conversion therapy violated her freedom of speech. While the ruling does not endorse conversion therapy, it does allow the practice to continue, despite the fact that conversion therapy has been widely debunked as pseudoscience and dramatically increases the risk of depression and suicide in queer and trans youth. To understand the ruling and its impact, we hear from Mother Jones reporter Madison Pauly, who has been following the insidious rise of anti-trans conversion therapy, and Shannon Minter, the Legal Director of the National Center for LGBTQ Rights, who has been at the forefront of the legal battles for queer and trans rights for decades. This week’s Trans Joy features River King, a registered nurse at a queer community clinic in Brooklyn, NY.
