*TRIGGER WARNING* - This book contains subject material of sexual violence, rape, homophobia, transphobia, gender dysphoria, and police violence. Please take care of yourselves and make a decision that is healthy for you before listening to this episode.

In this episode, we discuss the life-changing Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg. Jess's story of not fitting into the gender binary during the 1960s and early 1970s in the United States left us profoundly impacted by the truth that was so clearly present. We talk about community, organizing, identity, and hope in this episode, and want to leave you with a call to action: go do something to help your community.

In honor of Leslie, we would like to provide you with these links to donate if you have the resources:

The Center For Black Equity

The Trevor Project

LAMBDA Legal
