Transmisogyny and the Future of Feminism

About this episode

Imara Jones discusses the contributions of trans women to feminist thought and the interconnectedness of women's and trans rights with guest Julia Serano.

March is Women’s History Month, and trans women have made extensive contributions to the field of feminist thought. With women’s and trans rights under attack, it’s more important than ever to remember that these fights are interconnected. This week, Imara speaks with trans feminist writer and author of Whipping Girl Julia Serano about how trans feminism can continue to shape activist movements towards liberation . This week’s Trans Joy features Zo Shay, an ethnomusicologist, audio engineer, and musician based in Los Angeles.  Send your trans joy recommendations to translash_podcast @ translash [dot] org  Follow TransLash Media @translashmedia on TikTok , Instagram , Threads , Bluesky , and Facebook .
