Writing from the trashfire that is the UK’s current media landscape, it is such an unbelievable joy to be able to share some good news.
And this is really good news.
Writer/filmmaker/performer Amrou Al-Kadhi and presenter/producer Caitlin Benedict have gathered together some of the most exciting trans and/or non-binary creatives and campaigners in the UK, and made a SEVEN EPISODE LONG series for the BBC.
NB – BBC Sounds
Made by trans people, featuring trans people, covering the topics trans people want to discuss, without compromise – all on one of the biggest media platforms in the world.
This is the trans media I’ve been desperate for. And it’s so, so good.
We’re such experts at sharing the worst transphobia the media has to throw at us (see epic twitter thread here).
I’d love to see us put in even half that much energy into sharing a triumph like this.
Happy listening.
