Curious about the black trans experience? We are joined by Ms. Myles to explore topics such as self-discovery, trans joy, gender affirming care, the intersection of race & gender, healing your inner child, & finding community. We recently connected with Ms. Myles through our upcoming short film, Turning Heads Vol. II, where she will be featured as one of our MUAs. During that process, we found her to be so well spoken and knew there was so much more of her story that needed to be shared. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.

This stops today! Every gift in this guide will be something you can buy and gift on the same day if needed (well... except for Emily's ideas that require too much effort for any normal person).

The data is clear: LGBTQ2S+ people are overrepresented at every stage of the criminal justice system and this is especially true for trans people, who are subject to particularly inhumane conditions and treatment while incarcerated. Today we’re taking a deep dive into the experience of being trans behind bars. We’re using the Canadian correctional system & our guest Moka Dawkin's story as a case study, but this reality is all too common and often worse across the globe. In Todays episode you’ll hear Moka’s story of wrongful conviction, her trans incarceration experience, and we’ll be discussing the systemic criminal justice issues that are plaguing our community.
