Do we perhaps deserve the impossible? This is only one of the many beautiful questions Marquis Bey asks in this poem of an episode. Marquis is an exquisite thinker who joins me to speak about the incredible book Black Trans Feminism and share thoughts about why such a feminism is for everyone. Marquis speaks about how literature allows us to imagine new possibilities to exist in the world and see how everything is entangled with everything else. Join me to learn from Marquis, to think about abolition, coalition, fugitivity and traniflesh, and to imagine what the world could be beyond the realistic and the possible.  References:https://www.marquisbey.com/Marquis Bey's Black Trans Feminism (Duke UP, 2022)Marquis Bey's Cistem Failure (Duke UP, 2022)Marquis Bey's The Problem of the Negro as a Problem for Gender (University of Minnesota Press, 2020)Marquis Bey's “RE: [No Subject]—On Nonbinary Gender.” Qui Parle: Critical Humanities and Social Sciences (2022)Saidiya HartmanAlexis Pauline Gumbs' M Archive and UndrownedLauryn HillDenise Ferreira da SilvaToni MorrisonN.K.

As the TransLash Podcast takes a break for the holidays, we're sharing some of our favorite episodes from the archive. In this replay from 2022, Imara discusses how the idea of Black civil rights has been reduced to the idea of changes in specific laws, but the civil rights movement also included the ideas of what we now call Black liberation: a specific revisioning of what our society should look like steeped in racial justice. That's why she wanted to talk with Black trans leaders about what a new agenda for Black civil rights should look like. First, she's joined by Qween Jean, the founder of Black Trans Liberation. She's an activist and artist whose critical work centers Black trans people in the fight for racial equity. Then Imara talks to Kayla Gore, the co-founder of My Sistah's House, a fully fledged aid and advocate organization that started as an emergency shelter with 8 beds.Follow TransLash Media @translashmedia on TikTok, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, X, and Facebook.Follow Imara Jones on Instagram (@Imara_jones_), Threads (@imara_jones_), Bluesky (@imarajones.bsky.social), X (@ImaraJones)Send your trans joy recommendations to translash_podcast@translash.org Follow our guests on social media!Qween Jean: Instagram (@qween_jean) Kayla Gore: Instagram (@ms_kaylagore) TransLash Podcast is produced by Translash Media.Translash Team: Imara Jones, Oliver-Ash Kleine, Aubrey Calaway.

Send a message to the showIn this bonus episode, recorded live at Faces Brewing Co. in Malden, Mass, we explore local cold cases. With journalist Emily Sweeney, we uncover the intricate details behind some of the state's most perplexing unsolved crimes. We mark the anniversary of Debra Melo's mysterious disappearance. The case of 30-year-old Taunton mother who went missing in 2000 continues to pose questions about the people closest to her. We call for the public's involvement to keep her memory alive and push for answers. Next, we navigate three cases covered in Cold Case Files: The murder of retired Watertown police officer Gail Miles, the disappearance of Stow teenager Cathy Malcolmson, and the mystery surrounding the murder of John and Geraldine Magee in their Andover home. Despite years of investigative work, these families have few answers. Is there a connection to Gail's work as a cop to how she was killed? Why was Cathy's bicycle found on the exact route she rode to work months after she disappeared? Why would anyone want to harm the Magees? We  shine a light on the Middlesex County Cold Case Unit's work to solve these cases, like the 1971 murder of Natalie Scheublin in her Bedford home - a case finally resolved five decades later.  Delving deeper, we explore the disappearance of Jennifer Mbugua, a dedicated nurse who went missing from North Attleboro in 2014, the case of murdered by Eddie Flynn in Billerica in 1947, and Bruce Crowley who was last seen in Provincetown in late December 2022 and reported missing by a family member after his car was found in a parking lot there in early January 2023. Plus the years-old unsolved cases of Andy Puglisi, missing from Lawrence since 1976, teenagers Melanie Melanson who disappeared from Woburn in 1989 and Deanna Cremin who was found murdered in Somerville in 1995, Rita Hester, the Black Trans woman stabbed in her Allston apartment in 1998, Charline Rosemond found shot in a parking lot in Somerville in 2009, Brittany Tee, missing from Brookfield since 2023, Karina Holmer's 1996 grisly murder that still haunts Boston, and Reina Rojas who disappeared in 2022 after taking a ride from her East Boston neighborhood to Somerville. We emphasize the importance of public awareness and legislative advocacy, hoping for breakthroughs that could finally solve these mysteries.Get Emily Sweeney's Cold Case Files newsletter, sign up hereShow slides at crimeofthetrueSupport the Show.Follow Instagram | Facebook | X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube For show notes & source information at CrimeoftheTruestKind.comThis podcast has minimal profanity but from time to time you get one or some curse words.

We have Cuee in the house: a black trans man and hip hop artist that we got to know over a year ago in our Shift training in Puerto Rico. We chat about the importance of belonging to yourself instead of trying to fit in, and the difference it makes to grow up surrounded by people who love you for who you are. We also discuss the fear parents can experience when they discover their kids are transgender, because they want to protect their young people from harm. And… we talk about how the best protection we can really offer our kids is to be loyal with/to them. This is not only a conversation for parents, relatives, neighbors, friends and teachers of transgender kids. It's for anyone who wants to focus on the joy of being alive in a world that needs and thrives on diversity.

A black trans nutjob in Houston runs over a white man taking his garbage to the street, then backs over him, gets out of the car and stabs him 9 times, then twerks over his body for good measure before prancing away (all caught on video). We play the "imagine if the race rolls were reversed game.  

Being a Black Trans Woman is both challenging especially growing up in a family where acceptance and affirmation can be impossible. In this episode, Dr. Lulu and Kim are joined by Nikki Castle, a Black trans woman and life coach. Nikki shares her personal journey of self-discovery and acceptance, highlighting the challenges faced by the trans community, particularly within the Jamaican culture. The conversation delves into the importance of parental support and allyship, emphasizing the need for parents to embrace and affirm their gender diverse children. The episode also touches on the healthcare disparities faced by the trans community and the role of healthcare professionals in providing affirming and inclusive care. Key Takeaways: Transitioning is a choice, but being trans is not. It is important for parents to understand and support their gender diverse children throughout their journey. The face of love begins with parents. Parents play a crucial role in teaching compassion, empathy, and acceptance, which are essential for the well-being of gender diverse children. Allyship is an active process. It requires individuals to actively support and advocate for the rights and well-being of the LGBTQIA+ community. Mental health is a critical aspect of supporting gender diverse children. Parents should prioritize their children's mental health and seek appropriate support and resources. Healthcare professionals have a responsibility to provide affirming and inclusive care to the trans community. This includes understanding the unique challenges faced by trans individuals and creating safe and supportive spaces for their healthcare needs.

Gabe and River both had great experiences in New York... separately. Then, rapper Cuee joins the show to talk about the business of being a queer rapper, his political and creative inspirations (and what it means to be a loverboy), and redoing your old albums post-transition aka (Taylor's Version) (Trans). Plus, performing at Lawrence, Kansas' first Pride, being an incredibly confident stud in high school, and how he and ESPN's Katie Barnes got their boarding school to change their uniforms.Cuee: https://cueemusic.com/https://www.instagram.com/cueemusic/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

I know there's always the risk with this show of completely romanticising queer spaces as these glistening oasis' of tolerance and acceptance. But, that's really not the case - despite how wonderful and freeing they can be, they can also be a bit shitty and exclusionary. And I was reminded of that this week when I sat down to talk to talk to Andrew Gurza, who is a disability awareness consultant and activist, as well as being the host of the Disability After Dark podcast. We caught up to discuss The Edge, which was a gay bar in Ottawa, Canada, and held so much promise for Andrew but pretty much failed to deliver. But, that's not to say that this is a totally depressing episode. That Andrew is one horny guy, and he seems to have mastered the art of turning every conversation into one about blow jobs, so penises and giggling come up a lot, as well as the despair we both feel about mainstream gay male culture! So, in other words - something for everyone (?)! Do you have any memories of The Edge, or clubbing from your own scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to! Bonus points for embarrassing photos! You can also find me on Facebook (www.facebook.com/lostspacespod), Instagram (www.instagram.com/lostspacespod) and Twitter (www.twitter.com/lostspacespod) Find out more about Andrew by following him on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/andrewgurza6/) or visiting his website (https://www.andrewgurza.com/).

It's time to cancel magic words. We talk about these words from time to time. Magic words include black, trans, migrant, our democracy, and more. We must cancel them, first in our own minds, then in the minds of our kids and grandkids, and then in the minds of the victims of the Mockingbird Media. Kari Lake has given us a great example of what this looks like, when in responding to a reporter she utterly dismantled the term “Dreamers”. Thanks to another magic word, men like Julius Malema can call for the murder of 4 million white people. What does God's Word say? 1 John 1:5This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.Episode 1,399 Links:Washington state diverted $340M in federal COVID funds to migrants Just Kari Lake wailing on the mainstream media "Dreamers?

Navigating the complexities of gender identity can be challenging, especially for individuals who identify as transgender. Mi Aniefuna is a black transmasculine individual who has been on a journey of self-discovery and transition for the past decade. He is a husband, a father, a researcher, and a doctoral candidate at Columbia University. In this episode, Dr. Lulu and the Mama Bears are joined by Mi Aniefuna, a black transmasculine individual, to discuss his personal journey, the challenges faced by the trans community, and the importance of representation. Mi shares his experiences with passing and the pressure to conform to societal expectations. He also highlights the significance of compassion and support from loved ones in navigating the complexities of gender identity. The conversation sheds light on the intersectionality of race and gender, and the need for understanding and acceptance within the black community. Key Takeaways: Representation is crucial for the trans community, as it allows individuals to see themselves in spaces and validates their existence The multiplicity of coming out as a trans person can be exhausting, as it requires constantly revealing one's identity to others Black communities may exhibit homophobia and transphobia due to a sense of protectionism and the pressure to present the best image of blackness Living authentically and being true to oneself is essential for personal fulfillment and mental well-being Compassion and support from loved ones play a vital role in the journey of self-discovery and acceptance Links and Resources Website: ⁠⁠www.dr-lulu.com⁠⁠ IG @drlulutalkradio Linkedin: ⁠⁠www.linkedin.com/in/DrLulu/⁠⁠ Youtube: @drlulutalkradio ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Linktree

Clip From Ep #677 Of The Clay Edwards Show W/ Shaun Yurtkuran On 103.9 WYAB (01/19/24) A black trans-women gets arrested in Pearl, Ms. after shoplifting escalates to a shootout inside the Dollar General

Jordan, Damon, & Tony are curious – what are the risks it takes to bloom into who we really are? In this episode, we're honored to be joined by trans activist and the author of "The Risk It Takes To Bloom: On Life and Liberation," Raquel Willis. To kick things off, we engage in an icebreaker game that pays homage to Sylvia Rivera, a trailblazing trans activist from the 60s and 70s. Each of us then reflects on the pivotal moments when we embraced our sexuality or gender identity. Diving deep into the themes of Raquel's book, we explore the intricacies of the trans experience and culture. The episode concludes with a thought-provoking discussion on the future of the Queer revolution, emphasizing the crucial need to amplify the voices and experiences of Black Trans individuals. We know a lot but we don't know it all, so join the conversation on social and let us know your thoughts.

The Risk It Takes To Bloom is a new memoir by journalist and activist Raquel Willis. In 2014, Willis navigated post-college life as she grappled with the "dehumanization" of Blackness and the importance of transgender visibility. Willis examined how to support the Black trans community and helped organize one of the largest marches for Black trans lives in 2020. In today's episode, Willis speaks with NPR's Brittany Luse about her journey as a Black trans woman emerging into adulthood and the intersectional framework that shapes her activism.
