History, Trans Legacy, and Courage with Sophie Edwards #57

Subscribe

Description:

This episode explores why history matters in the fight for LGBTQ+ visibility and belonging. Sophie Edwards discusses the importance of creating trans-centered educational content that goes beyond explaining trans people to cis audiences and instead helps trans people understand their own historical legacy. The conversation examines healthcare, gender-affirming care, political challenges facing queer communities in Canada and beyond, and the role social media plays in public education. Sophie also reflects on language, identity, and the ways cultural narratives shape how communities are understood. Together, the hosts and guest unpack the power of storytelling as a tool for connection and resistance
