from Isn't It Queer Hosted by Isnt It Queer
Jonny and Heather are joined by Craig as we record this episode on Trans Day of Visibility. We discuss visibility, the good and the bad kind, as Craig conemplates the consequences of the Trump Admin challenging California's laws aganst teachers mandated to report any and all gender variance in students t their parents. The consequences of related grade school traumas stay with us our entire lives. We also lean into fighting deliberate efforts at trans erasure. In the back half of the show, Jonny shares exerptes from oral histories that are (and are not) part of the upcoming installation in the Sharp Museum on the SIU Campus, "Queer Stories/Queer Spaces: Histories and Queertographies." He shares particularly oral histories about the local LGBTQ+ swimming hole, The Pit.
