Yeah, that’s Janet Mock, talking to Oprah. Janet is an amazing advocate for trans people. I particularly like the way she acknowledges the privilege that her looks, and her binary identification, give her, and then comes back for everyone else. I hope I can manage just a tiny bit of her eloquence and grace.

And while I’m on the subject of amazing trans people, Laverne Cox recently won an Emmy for a documentary called The T Word. She got that for making the show. The stars are the seven young trans people that she features in it. You can find it online here, but it isn’t available everywhere so you may want to consider something like TunnelBear.
