Hey, Cis!

In S2:E21: The Story of Dawn, Her Dad & The Tractor, with Shelley Thompson and Maya V Henry, we're celebrating a Maritime-made film written and directed by Shelley Thompson and starring Maya V. Henry.
This 2 Part podcast comes ahead of the films return to the Atlantic region this winter.
On casting trans actors in film: 
‘It’s not that I need to be seen to be doing the right thing. I need to do the right thing. And we need to have proper representation for trans individuals across the media. And we need them to be respected...’  Shelley Thompson, Writer and Director, ‘Dawn, Her Dad and the Tractor’

What is Hey, Cis!?

A beyond binary journey to being a better human. Join our head-on conversation about current affairs and gender-based issues affecting transgender and non-binary youth, students, and adults within Canada.

Hosts Cyn (she/her) and Isaac (he/they) give arts, culture, doers & dreamers a beyond binary twist in this Atlantic Canadian conversational talk show; breaking down cis-normative bias, smashing stigma, and fostering a greater connection between cisgender and trans, and non-binary communities.
