0.13. Before We Were Trans: A Convo with Kit Heyam
Episode description
For this bonus episode, Leigh sat down with Dr. Kit Heyam, university lecturer, queer history activist, and trans awareness trainer, about their new book, Before We Were Trans: A New History of Gender. We talked about gender diversity throughout the world, the importance of getting into “messy” or not easily-categorized gender variance in queer history, and more!
The book comes out in North America today (September 13, 2022), so go check it out!
