Trans Sporter Room Ep80: Julia Serano

The author of the seminal book on the transgender experience, Whipping Girl, Excluded, and a debut novel, 99 Erics, Julia Serano is our guest this week. She discusses her essay on Medium, The Dregerian Narrative, exploring anti-trans hate and the labeling of trans people as "activists" simply for being. Plus, Serano shares her appreciation for Sci-Fi and talks about her experience as a musician, songwriter and spoken word poet. Karleigh and Dawn also have news of more trans murders, the dismissal of a lawsuit by an extremist Christian legal group that sought to ban trans girls from competing with cisgender girls as student-athletes in Connecticut, and a big win for out trans racer Charlie Martin in the U.K. Follow Julia Serano on Twitter @JuliaSerano This is a special expanded episode given our special guest so click here so you can also watch the unedited raw video of our conversation on YouTube! https://youtu.be/UR1ptQuHkC0
