“Let me figure out what's going to have the best impact whilst keeping me intact.” – Sabah Choudrey It's important everybody has the opportunity to find communities wherein they feel free, loved, and accepted. What's just as crucial is having access to spaces where people can seek out such communities. Two facilitators who have carved out inclusive, joyful spaces for trans people to connect are Sabah Choudrey and Xandice Armah. What is the meaning of community? How do you balance political activism and personal wellbeing? Listen now to hear their thoughts. Sabah and Xandice's word of the day is BELONGING.

A talk I recorded, which originally aired as part of Trans Pride Brighton's 2020 livestream event.

Chemtrails - “Frightful in the Sunlight” from the 2020 album The Peculiar Smell of the Inevitable on PNKSLM. "Like riding into hell on a unicorn." That's how a friend of Manchester-via-London band Chemtrails described their latest single. (They clarify on Facebook, "his music taste is questionable, but we'll take it.")  Originally a lo-fi home recording project of musical and romantic partners Mia Lust and Laura Orlova, Chemtrails have been riding that unicorn since the release of their 2016 digital-only EP Love In Toxic Wasteland. Even though they had only played one live show (at Trans Pride Brighton), Swedish label PNKSLM Recordings signed them right up. (You should check out an episode of our podcast focused entirely on the renowned label.) Read the full post on KEXP.org Support the show.
