The 4th annual Transgender Justice Teach-in brought together T/GQ/Enby folks doing abolition work and organizing around/against state-sanctioned violence. In this week's episode, we revisit a conversation highlighting efforts in the Midwest and emphasize the connections between both queer/trans justice and abolitionist organizing.
Take the Last Bite is a direct counter to the Midwest Nice mentality— highlighting advocacy & activism by queer/trans communities in the Midwest region. Each episode unearths the often disregarded and unacknowledged contributions of queer & trans folks to social change through interviews, casual conversations and reflections on Midwest queer time, space, and place.
