  • Summary

  • Emilia Pérez is out there tearing up the awards circuit, and though it stars a trans woman, it contains one of the most damaging portrayals of trans women in recent movies. We're gonna dive into all the reasons why, because this is what happens when cis people steal our voices and our stories. They'll pat themselves on the back for being "such good allies" to us, while perpetuating all the lies bigots tell about us and actively making our lives harder. It's gotta stop. Writer, journalist, and filmmaker Jessie Earl joins us to discuss the joy of the mundane and trans Trekkies!
