Podcast appearances and mentions of Andrea Jenkins

Five years ago, the murder of George Floyd by then-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin turned the corner of 38th Street and Chicago Avenue into an epicenter of worldwide calls to change policing. It was at that intersection where witnesses filmed Floyd's final moments as he cried out repeatedly that he couldn't breathe.Now, as city leaders work to implement court-ordered police reforms, they are also trying to figure out what's next for the site where the murder happened, now known as George Floyd Square. Council member Andrea Jenkins represents that area on the Minneapolis City Council. She joins MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about the future of George Floyd Square.

The murder of George Floyd five years ago led to a court order that requires the Minneapolis Police Department and the city to fix a pattern of racial discrimination in policing. A new report outlines the reforms made so far, where progress has been slow and what's next. Minneapolis Council member Andrea Jenkins' district includes the block where Floyd was killed. We talked to her about George Floyd Square and why five years later, its future is still unclear. A Minnesota author grew up near an immigration detention center in California.

Recorded live at the Centre for Progressive Policy's Inclusive Growth Conference on 28th November, this special episode The Power Test looks at where we are six months into the new Labour government and what it needs to do to deliver its promise of a decade of national renewal.Following the Budget, the reelection of Donald Trump in the US, farmer protests, and a rumoured government ‘relaunch', Sam Freedman and Ayesha Hazarika, together with Chief Executive of the New Economics Foundation Dr Danny Sriskandarajah, CPP's Director of Place and Practice Annabel Smith, and Power Test regular and Director of the Project on Center-Left Renewal at the Progressive Policy Institute Claire Ainsley, look at what Labour needs to do to deliver, restore trust in politics and survive.Most significantly, “voters need clear proof points on delivery that they can see in their own lives” said Ainsley, arguing that standard economic measures will not be enough to convince Britons to back Labour for a second term. “You have to improve living standards, not just infrastructure and GDP” - a lesson potentially that can be taken from Donald Trump's victory in the US over an unpopular Democratic Party despite a booming economy on paper.Labour also needs to be telling a story about its approach on the economy - “you need to constantly tell people what you're doing. The Tories tried several different explanations of their approach - but at least they tried” - with the panel pushing the government to toughen up argument, even on politically challenging issues including taxes on wealth.Smith also raised the somewhat untapped potential Labour mayors can offer the government - “we can reinvigorate Labour representation, with Labour mayors being part of how the government communicates its message”. Mayors are well-known, often well-liked and sometimes higher profile than new cabinet ministers. But Sam Freedman points out that with Andrea Jenkins defecting to Reform, it's quite possible that Lincolnshire could well have a Reform mayor next year, and the party needs to get a move on - particularly with local elections and those in Scotland due within 18 months to two years.

Rob discusses the impact of government policies on the cost of boilers and heat pumps for homeowners, landlords, and tenants. The government's Clean Heat Market Mechanism, aimed at promoting heat pumps and reducing carbon emissions, has led to fines for boiler manufacturers if heat pump installation targets are not met. In response, boiler companies have increased their prices, passing on the cost to consumers. The episode highlights the disconnect between what the government wants and what people actually need, ultimately resulting in increased expenses for everyone involved.  KEY TAKEAWAYS The government announced plans to introduce penalties for missed heat pump installation targets, leading to a price hike in gas boilers by manufacturers. The price increase in boilers ultimately affects consumers, including landlords and homeowners, who may face higher costs for new installations. The government's push for heat pumps under the guise of net zero and carbon emissions has led to backlash and criticism from individuals like Andrea Jenkins, a Conservative MP. The government's interference in the market has resulted in increased costs for consumers and landlords, potentially leading to rent hikes and financial burdens for working people. BEST MOMENTS "Boiler manufacturers have been hiking prices of gas boilers because the government announced penalties for missed heat pump installation targets." "Government want one thing, and they're telling you they want one thing. But when you get boots on the ground, what people want and what the government say you want are two different things." "This has all come from government getting in the way of itself for no reason. People wouldn't be having these increases in the cost of paying for boilers if this clean heat market mechanism hadn't possibly been introduced." "The government are trying to tell people that they want one thing, and what people actually want are two different things."

It's "morning in Minneapolis" and we're celebrating the results of election 2023. A progressive majority is empowered, but it's not veto-proof. The city's only two open seats without an incumbent (in Wards 7 and 12) were filled by smart young, inspiring women (Katie Cashman and Aurin Chowdhury) running against older white men. We talk about what went right; why the big money interests behind the All of Mpls slate failed; why Andrea Jenkins barely holding on in Ward 8 should be seen as a rebuke of her leadership; why the Star Tribune editorial board needs to learn to feel shame; the importance of recruiting good candidates; and what this all means for the next two year council term and the 2025 mayor/council elections.

Full Episode Notes are posted at Patreon.com  Available for non-member and member supporters.  Show Description: In the wake of the police murder of George Floyd, expectations were high that if  systems-change around policing were possible anywhere, it might be in the progressive city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. On the anniversary of Floyd's death, there have been many heartfelt memorials but fewer in-depth investigations into what's happening on the abolition front. So what's the reality? In this episode, Laura takes a look beneath the headlines, to speak with the Minneapolis activists and city council members at the heart of the story. The problem of police racism—and of police at all—has been with us for generations, they say. It'll take more than a year to fix it. Music in the Middle:  “Which Side Are You On?” by Rebel Diaz featuring Lah Tere, from their album release, “The 15 year Anniversary Album”, released 20 years ago, courtesy of the artist.Guests:  Andrea Jenkins, Council Vice President, and representing Ward 8;  Arianna Nason, Anishinaabe healing justice facilitator, abolitionist, and disability activist;  Cam Gordon, Council member representing Ward 2;  Kandace Montgomery, Co-founder and Co-executive director of Black Visions and Lead organizer Black Lives Matter

A year ago, Minneapolis councilwoman Andrea Jenkins — the first African American openly trans woman elected to office in the U.S. — called for defunding the police in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death. Now, activists occupying the intersection where Floyd was killed are calling her a traitor. POLITICO’s Renu Rayasam talks with Jenkins about the tightrope of reforming law enforcement and protecting residents — and why George Floyd Square has become a source of heartbreak for her. Plus, National Guard troops will leave the Capitol this week. And Biden and Putin are poised to hold their first summit in Geneva. Renuka Rayasam writes the POLITICO Nightly newsletter.

I am super excited for today's episode. Today I am talking with Andrea Jenkins who is a past client, friend and all around badass woman! She has overcome her addictions and is now 2 years sober and living a completely different life than she was only a few years ago.  In this interview she generously shares about her journey to sobriety and what it has taken to become and remain sober.

She also shares how creativity, art and nature have played a huge role in her healing.   I know you will love this interview with Andrea and be inspired by her relatability, honesty and strength.    Find Andrea and her Dot Art >> www.instagram.com/andreas.nature   Want to connect with Talia?

Andrea Jenkins tem seu lugar reservado na história da política americana por ter sido eleita a primeira mulher transgênero afro-americana para uma Câmara de Vereadores, a de Minneapolis, uma das grandes cidades do país. Recentemente, ela entrou para uma prestigiosa lista de 44 mulheres que estão transformando a política nos Estados Unidos e no mundo.    Do enviado especial a Minneapolis, Depois de regar cuidadosamente as diversas plantas de seu gabinete no 4° andar do imponente prédio da Câmara de Vereadores de Minneapolis, em sua única visita ao local durante a semana por causa da pandemia, Andrea Jenkins se debruça sobre a pilha de correspondências depositadas na sua mesa. No pacote que mais lhe chama a atenção, ela encontra um exemplar de um livro enviado de presente e, não esconde a imensa surpresa. Três páginas são dedicadas a ela na obra “She represents....” (Ela representa, em tradução livre) da escritora e jornalista Caitlin Donohue, que lista as 44 mulheres que estão mudando a política não apenas nos Estados Unidos, mas em todo mundo.   Este é o mais novo reconhecimento do trabalho desenvolvido por Andrea, eleita em 2017 com 73% dos votos de seu distrito eleitoral, um sucesso atribuído ao seu longo trabalho junto a comunidades menos favorecidas de Minneapolis. No currículo, está a curadoria de um projeto da história oral dos transgêneros na Universidade de Minnesota e muitos outros projetos desenvolvidos para a comunidade LGBTQI+, que lhe renderam diversos prêmios. Andrea também trabalhou vários anos como assistente de políticos e da própria Câmara de Vereadores antes de se lançar definitivamente em uma campanha eleitoral como candidata pelo Partido Democrata. Segundo ela, a motivação também veio pelo rumo tomado no país desde a eleição de Donald Trump, em 2016.  “Decidi me tornar uma representante ou ao menos concorrer à Câmara de Vereadores com o apoio de meus vizinhos porque os problemas de desigualdade na sociedade me afetam demais. Eu quero fazer parte das mudanças atuando nesta mesma arena. O que me motivou também a disputar a eleição foi a liderança que temos atualmente no cargo máximo do governo dos Estados Unidos. Conheço os embates em Washington, não teremos muitas leis nem apoio vindo de lá. Nas cidades estão as maiores inovações, é onde as mudanças acontecem, e quis fazer parte dessas mudanças em nível local”. Reforma da polícia de Minneapolis Andrea Jenkins foi eleita pelo distrito de Minneapolis onde o afro-americano George Floyd foi morto, em maio deste ano. A tragédia, segundo ela, serviu para escancarar as desigualdades da sociedade local e do país. “Essa morte trágica, esse assassinato teve impacto no mundo todo. Ele criou um sentido de urgência para denunciar desigualdades na nossa sociedade e trazer justiça para as comunidades negras e pardas, que têm sido vítimas de racismo, opressão, homofobia e transfobia por muitas décadas e anos. Acho que a pandemia do coronavírus revelou muitas desigualdades e a morte de George Floyd acelerou ainda mais isso. E depois, aqui em Minneapolis, por todo os Estados Unidos e pelo mundo, houve demonstrações de resistência à opressão avassaladora que o capitalismo e os supremacistas brancos impõem à nossa cultura e sociedade”, argumenta.  Dede a morte de Floyd, Andrea Jenkins tem militado pela reforma da polícia local. Houve muita pressão popular e discussões para abolir a estrutura policial municipal, mas o projeto acabou não prosperando. Segundo a vereadora, é preciso avançar numa reforma em que haja uma realocação de recursos da polícia para outros setores da sociedade.   “Eu fiz parte de um pedido de realocação de recursos da polícia. E quando falo isso, penso em transferir recursos da polícia local para outras políticas públicas de segurança para a nossa sociedade, como investimentos em mais moradias, empregos, melhor acesso para o sistema de saúde e garantir que as crianças possam ir para as escolas e serem educadas para não se transformarem em vítimas de prisões. Não significa que não devemos ter polícia em nossa sociedade. Nós temos que ter policiais bem treinados para lidar com todo tipo de problemas, que sejam responsáveis por suas ações, e saibam lidar com vários tipos de situações, desde a investigação de crimes violentos, terrorismo e outros assuntos importantes que acontecem o tempo todo“, afirma. Além de competências bem definidas, segundo a vereadora, é preciso uma mudança no tratamento dispensado pelos policiais aos cidadãos que se sentem discriminados.  “Precisamos da polícia como parte da nossa sociedade, mas ela deve fazer parte da nossa comunidade. Ela não pode continuar operando como uma força militar. Alguns veem as pessoas que pagam seus salários como inimigos, e parece que os negros e pardos são o alvo de suas hostilidades. Isso tem que acabar. Estamos repensando e criando uma nova realidade para a segurança pública nas nossas comunidades e isso inclui um melhor treinamento das nossas forças policiais”. Andrea Jenkins, de 59 anos, que também é escritora, poeta, artista e ativista dos direitos dos transgênero, garante que foi eleita por causa de sua plataforma ampla de luta pelo direito de diversas minorias. “Estou muito ciente de que meu trabalho é para que a comunidade LGBTQI+ tenha os mesmos direitos e justiça que qualquer outra pessoa na nossa comunidade. Mas não é uma plataforma específica. Sou muito inclusiva e minhas politicas visam também defender todas as comunidades sub-representadas e marginalizadas, como indocumentados, imigrantes, deficientes, e também problemas relacionados às mulheres para que todos possam ter seus direitos assegurados. Não tenho uma plataforma especifica, mas certamente uso meu trabalho como vereadora para elevar os temas que dizem respeitos às pessoas LGBTQI+”, diz.  Futuro na política Aos 59 anos, ela tem um mandato de vereadora garantido até 2021, mas não descarta futuras aventuras na arena política. A experiência em um contexto tão delicado para pessoas que ocupam cargos públicos, seja em que nível for dentro da administração pública, parece lhe dar combustível para tentar caminhos mais ambiciosos.  “Não sei quantas pessoas em um cargo público tiveram que lidar com uma pandemia global, protestos e manifestações antirracistas ao mesmo tempo. A pandemia tem criado um verdadeiro pesadelo econômico para os políticos. Tem sido muito desafiador trabalhar neste contexto e quero muito continuar no meu papel de vereadora. Mas devo dizer que politica é uma questão de oportunidade. Até o momento, não tenho intenção de me candidatar a nenhum cargo. Mas, se houver oportunidade, estarei pronta para servir à minha comunidade”, conclui.      

Welcome to September, queerlings! No new episode of History is Gay today, instead this bonus drop is us sharing a wonderful new podcast called Transcripts with you!  Transcripts is a new podcast that puts the transgender movement in context. Using oral histories from the Tretter Transgender Oral History Project at the University of Minnesota, hosts Andrea Jenkins and Myrl Beam introduce listeners to the trans activists who are changing our world. Please enjoy this first episode, "I'm Seeing My Liberation Right Now" and go subscribe! https://transcriptspodcast.dash.umn.edu/  

Councilmember Jenkins joined Chad to discuss the upcoming Charter Commission vote on sending a charter change to the ballot, the increase in crime in Minneapolis, and staffing levels at MPD. See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Sylvia Bartley sits down with Andrea Jenkins, City Council member from Ward 8 and Vice President of the Minneapolis City Council. Among many topics, they discuss the impact of George Floyd's death, the protests, and the options being considered by the Minneapolis City Council to address issues surrounding policing in the city.  

In this special episode of You First, we recognize the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Disability Rights Florida staff members Barb Page, Juli Pack, Curtis Filaroski, Ann Robinson, Andrea Jenkins, and Olivia Babis discuss the impact the ADA has had on them, how things might be different without the ADA, and what still needs to be accomplished even 30 years later.

This week Dana & Lauren discuss the first openly Transgender Black Woman to have a seat at the table.  Andrea Jenkins is City Council Person for Minneapolis' 8th Ward.  Check out this episode to see how she is breaking down barriers in the political sphere.

Even though transgender-themed TV shows like Transparent and Pose have achieved mainstream popularity, trans people still face huge barriers to employment, housing, and safety. In fact, many trans people of color say that their lives are harder than ever before. Transcripts, a new podcast hosted by Myrl Beam and Andrea Jenkins, investigates how trans activists are trying to change that. Later in the show: The Global Encyclopedia of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer History tackles wide-ranging topics, including masculinity in Iranian cinema and crossdressing in the Middle East. Hanadi Al-Samman coordinated the 56 entries in the encyclopedia connected to the Middle East. Plus: Hate crimes against LGBTQ people have been on the rise since 2012. Liz Coston discusses what these crimes look like and how police and doctors are failing victims.

We're dropping a bonus track today because we think you need to hear this conversation RIGHT NOW. This is the recording from our show launch event at the Minnesota Institute of Art in Minneapolis. Hear our hosts Myrl Beam and Andrea Jenkins in dialogue with LaSaia Wade (Brave Space Alliance) and Diamond Stylz (Black Transwomen Inc). They discuss the uprisings against white supremacy and police brutality, the relationship between anti-Black racism and COVID-19, and how YOU can help them in their work. The audio is a little wonky because it's a Zoom call. Transcription will be up on our website soon.

Minneapolis City Council Vice President Andrea Jenkins joined us to talk about today's vote on the city charter. Should it be changed without knowing exactly what change to the MPD will look like? Take a listen to her thoughts.

In this conversation we address what it means to be free of state sponsored violence against black and brown people and how each of us can start the work towards intentionally building a healthy and whole community. We are lifting up the voices of BIPOC of all ages to discuss what will make our communities safe(r). Listen to hear what each of our guests agreed was the number one resource currently making us feel safe(r) in our own neighborhoods, as we continue to reimagine an equitable and just future for our communities.

Equality Florida hosted a virtual Town Hall with Black LGBTQ leaders in response to a rash of attacks that have claimed Black lives including the brutal killing of George Floyd by white police officers in Minneapolis. The Black LGBTQ leaders included Alphonso David, Human Rights Campaign President, Michele Rayner, Civil Rights Attorney who represented the McGlockton family following the murder of Markeis, Imani Rupert-Gordon, National Center for Lesbian Rights Executive Director, Andrea Jenkins, Minneapolis City Council Vice President and moderated by Nadine Smith, Equality Florida Executive Director. The Town Hall came after more than 500 LGBTQ organizations from across the country signed onto a letter condemning racial violence and committing to the fight against it. This important dialogue also comes on the heels of the murders of seven Black transgender women in Florida in less than two years, the shooting of Ahmaud Arbery by white vigilantes in Georgia and the weaponizing of race by a white woman against Christian Cooper a Black gay man bird watching in New York City’s Central Park and the disturbing questions raised in the recent police shooting death of Tony McDade a Black transgender man in Tallahassee. All the leaders during the Town Hall also addressed the fact that since 2013 over 170 transgender women and men have been murdered in this country with over 70% being of color. This is another stark reminder of the need for all civil right leaders who are speaking out against systemic racism and hate violence claiming Black lives must be LGBTQ inclusive. Nadine Smith, Equality Florida Executive Director has been named one of Florida’s "Most Powerful and Influential Women" by the Florida Diversity Council. She has received the League of Women Voter's Woman of Distinction Award and in 2018 was named one of the 100 Most Influential Floridians by Influence Magazine. She currently serves as chair of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Florida Advisory Committee. She lives in St. Petersburg with her wife Andrea and son Logan. Equality Florida is the largest civil rights organization dedicated to securing full equality for Florida’s LGBTQ community. Through education, grassroots organizing, coalition building and lobbying they are changing Florida so that no one suffers harassment or discrimination on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

06/15 Minneapolis City Council VP Andrea Jenkins believes every institution in the Twin Cities is racist. How do we reason with that?

The Hake Report, Fri. 5/29/20: Hake touches briefly on the weak Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, and the City Council VP black transgender “Andrea Jenkins” who sang a “stirring” rendition of “Amazing Grace,” according to local CBS. So-called police chiefs elsewhere, really politicians, put their nose in another city's business. Unicorn Riot is Antifa and they glorify violence, yet Twitter and liberals promote them and BLM. ALSO: Jessica Rosenworcel, Democrat FCC commissioner, opposes Trump on his order against social media censorship!  CALLERS: Hake argues with callers about their overdramatic language about the George Floyd police incident, including Earl from Michigan who pretends Benjamin Crump is an honest lawyer. Psh. Please.

"C'è un virus negli Stati Uniti oltre al Covid 19, si chiama razzismo". Sono le parole di Andrea Jenkins, amministratrice del Municipio 8 di Minneapolis, pronunciate a commento della morte di George Floyd, afroamericano, ucciso per mano di due agenti di polizia. L'episodio ha innescato forti proteste da parte della popolazione e ha infuocato il dibattito politico. Ne parliamo con Stefano Luconi, docente di Storia degli Stati Uniti d'america all'Università di Padova, Kevin Diaz, redattore politico del quotidiano Star Tribune di Minneapolis, e Brad Stevenson, testimone degli scontri della scorsa notte per le strade di Minneapolis.

Susie Jones was reporting live from the site of continuing protests over the death of George Floyd. City Councilmember Andrea Jenkins approached and agreed to an improptu interview. While calling for calm, she's also called for justice for Mr. Floyd and believes he'd still be alive if he was white.

Andrea Jenkins is a politician, community leader, artist, and activist. She is known for being the first African American openly transgender woman elected to public office in the U.S. Chanda and Andrea discuss the importance of owning your truth, why representation and policy matters, and the struggles of navigating systems that were built on racism.

Spike Lee’s “Malcolm X” paints a nuanced portrait of a historical icon — as a human being who was constantly searching for his truth and who was willing to change his mind in public, over and over again. The movie takes us through the various chapters of Malcolm X’s life: first as Malcolm Little, then, in his early 20s, as “Detroit Red,” to his rise as Malcolm X, the activist preserved in history books today — and beyond. Activist and poet Andrea Jenkins related to Malcolm X’s experience of transformation and evolution portrayed in the movie. She’s a city council member in Minneapolis and was the first openly transgender black woman elected to office in the United States. She joined us for a live recording and screening of the movie at the Parkway Theater in Minneapolis.Andrea Jenkins is a poet, politician, performance artist, and transgender activist. She’s the vice president of the Minneapolis city council. Her book is "The T is Not Silent: New and Selected Poems."Find the transcript at https://onbeing.org/series/this-movie-changed-me/Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at https://onbeing.org/tmcmletter/

This year, the Human Rights Campaign reported 18 transgender people were killed across the U.S. The majority of those killed were Black transgender women. The latest victim was Bee Love Slater. Her body was found in a burnt-out car in Florida. Andrea Jenkins, the first African-American openly transgender woman elected to public office in the U.S., joins the Counter Stories team to highlight the barriers society has placed this vulnerable community. Counter Stories hosts are: Hlee Lee, owner of “the other media group” Luz Maria Frias, executive coach and race equity strategist Don Eubanks, associate professor at Metropolitan State University and cultural consultant Marianne Combs, MPR News reporter

Dr. Sylvia Bartley sits down with Minnesota City Council Members Jeremiah Ellison and Andrea Jenkins to discuss the many issues facing citizens of Minneapolis and their roles as council members in addressing them. 

She has been a performance artist, poet, and writer. She has also been known as a playwright, a curator, a visual artist, a spoken word artist performer, and public speaker. She was also the Trans Oral Historian for the Tretter Collection at the  University of Minnesota interviewing and collecting the oral history of over 150 members of the transgender community.  In 2017 she’s added a new position to her impressive resume – Councilwoman representing Minneapolis’s 8th ward and Vice President of Minneapolis City Council. Minneapolis is the largest city in Minnesota and the 46th largest city in the United States. With its smaller neighbor St. Paul,  Minneapolis makes up the Twin Cities, the 16th largest metropolitan area in the country. In this historic election she became the first transgender woman of color elected to a major city council in the country. She serves with Phillippe Cunningham, a transgender man elected at the same time to represent to the city’s 4th Ward.   At its 110th annual convention, the NAACP passed three resolutions regarding the civil rights of the LGBTQ community. On the transgender community, the organization resolved to work with all its Units to work to support equal protection for transgender individuals so that all members of our community can live free of violence, shame, and discrimination. So far in 2019 twelve transgender women have been killed in the United States.  As a Transgender activist Andrea Jenkins not only speaks about protection for members of transgender women and men but more representation and inclusion in all areas including politics.

John Zipperer and I discuss Transgender leadership with Andrea Jenkins, city Councilmember Minneapolis and Addison Beaux, writer.

My guest for today is Andrea Jenkins. According to Wikipedia, “Andrea Jenkins is an American policy aide, writer, performance artist, poet, and transgender activist. She is known for being the first African American openly trans woman to be elected to office in the United States. Jenkins moved to Minnesota to attend the University of Minnesota in 1979 and was hired by the Hennepin County government, where she worked for a decade. Jenkins worked as a staff member on the Minneapolis City Council for 12 years before beginning work as curator of the Transgender Oral History Project at the University of Minnesota's Jean-Nickolaus Tretter Collection in Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Studies. Starting in 2018, Jenkins will represent Ward 8 on the Minneapolis City Council.” And today I have the privilege of interviewing her.Links:•Andrea’s website: https://andreajenkinsforward8.org/ •Andrea on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndreaForWard8/ •Andrea on Twitter: https://twitter.com/annapoetic •Atheist Nomads: http://www.atheistnomads.com/ •Help a Five-Year-Old Go to School: https://www.gofundme.com/help-a-fiveyearold-go-to-school •The Trans Podcaster Visibility Initiative: https://www.facebook.com/transvisiblepodcaster/ •Dream Youth: http://dreamyouth.bandcamp.com •Asher Silberman: http://www.ashersilberman.com/ •My Twitter: http://twitter.com/tmamone •Bi Any Means on Twitter: http://twitter.com/bianymeanspod •Bi Any Means on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/bianymeanspodcast •The Bi Any Means/Biskeptical Podcast Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/179617892470906/ •Email: bianymeanspodcast@gmail.com •Listener line: 410-690-3558 •My Patreon page: http://www.patreon.com/tmamone•PayPal link: http://paypal.me/tmamone •Bi Any Means Blog: http://freethoughtblogs.com/bianymeans/

We know being black in America affects lots of aspects of life. You're likely to make less money than a white person doing the same job. Your kids are more likely to get a harsher punishment at school than a white kid who misbehaved the same way. But a new op-ed by Emory University Professor Benjamin Reiss says there's a disparity at play that you might not even have thought about: sleep. Turns out, race shapes our sleep - and the reasons stretch deep into our country's history. Reiss joins us this week to explain why, and what we can do about it. We also check in with Minneapolis City Council member Andrea Jenkins. Her election victory last month made her the first openly transgender woman of color to be elected to public office. And we'll check in with Jessica Bellamy from Kentuckians for the Commonwealth. They're having a black trivia fundraiser on December 7, and Jessica stopped by to try to stump us with some sample questions!

During the month of November services are held for Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR),  memorializing victims of transphobic violence. Unfortunately As of the end of October 2017, 23 trans people have been reported killed by violence in the U.S. Often after being discriminated against and  targeted for violence in life, trans women and men continue to be victimized in death where they are misgendered in police and media reports even by family members and are not identified immediately as transgender. Although nothing can take away the pain of the loss of these trans women and women, this year has been historic for the TLGB community with the election of several openly transgender candidates in Virginia, in California, in Pennsylvania, and in Georgia on November 8th. Perhaps the greatest win of all was in the city of Minneapolis where Andrea Jenkins became the first openly trans woman of color elected to a major city’s city council.  Earlier this year we spent time with Andrea talking about her poetry, her work collecting the oral history of our trans sisters/brothers and dreams of representing Minneapolis Ward 8. To celebrate her historic win and as a reminder that Trans Lives Matter, Collections by Michelle Brown will rebroadcast our earlier interview with now Councilwoman-elect Andrea Jenkins.  Her fierce spirit, unwavering commitment and unapologetic voice as a proud trans woman of color is something we can all truly be thankful for!!

Andrea Jenkins became the first transgender out woman of color to be elected to public office. Marginalized people ain’t got time for oppression and went to the polls to remind others. Irna says we should think about having more platonic baes in our lives. Jazzy Rowe’s self advocacy is what #blackgirlmagic is made of. One of us had an orgy. Al Reynolds is courageous AF. Giovanni Melton should be here. We changed our relationship status to “it’s complicated”with Tyrese. The perfomative masculinity olympics. Why good fathers matter.

The local election is over. Joe goes after Reuvers for saying that he didn't vote. Whoops! Who is Andrea Jenkins? Joe mentions that there are some very special people that were victorious this election cycle. The future of the NFL? Bleak according to Souch.

Host Raquel Willis discusses Amber Rose's sex positive feminism, No Justice No Pride and the Black Panther trailer. Later, she interviews Andrea Jenkins on her run for Minneapolis City Council and trans folks in politics.

Too much of trans-history has gone unrecorded and untold but our guest Andrea Jenkins is capturing this precious treasure. Andrea Jenkins is the Trans Oral Historian for the Jean-Nickolaus Tretter Collection in Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Studies at the University of Minnesota. The Project will empower individuals to tell their story, while providing students, historians, and the public with a more rich foundation of primary source material about the transgender community. Jenkins has already interviewed over 125 members of the Transgender community ranging in age from 18 to 85. She is also and most notably a playwright, curator, visual artist, poet, writer, spoken word artist, performer, and trans-activist.  Her work is concerned with the interplay of words, mediums and genres that can be mashed together to create a new narrative. She views her work as collage, working primarily with paper and mixed media as a visual form of curation. Taking various images that have been artfully produced for the purpose of consumerism and mixing them with social justice messages and images brings attention to the issues of inequality. ANDREA JENKINS has more than 25 years of public service experience as a Minneapolis City Council policy aide, nonprofit executive director and consultant, and Hennepin County employment specialist and is currently a candidate for City Council in Minneapolis Ward 8. In 2016, the murders of 27 transgender people were reported, making it the deadliest year on record for Transgender people. By February 27, 2017 five deaths had been reported two in New Orleans within days of each other. Statistics show the average life expectancy for Black transgender women is 35 years. Trans-genius, talent, lives and stories gone too soon.
