| Trans Realness: The Social and Cultural Politics of Passing
Thurs | Dec 4 | 5:00PM-6:00PM
LGBT Resource Center Conference Room
This program will bring into conversation the ways by which trans folks negotiate their existence in a societal system bound within a gender binary. By centering trans voices in this conversation, the hope is to challenge the preconceived notions surrounding trans bodies and ultimately allow trans folks the opportunity to redefine their truth.
"... I grew confident in my choice to be true to myself, despite what anyone thought, despite the fear of what was to come. I knew that if Ichose to make myself happy, to live in the pursuit of me and my dreams, that I would be free." - Janet Mock, "Redefining Realness" (73)
*This program is a closed space to folks who identify within the trans spectrum *
