Ep. 28 - Race & Gender (A conversation with Dylan Wilder Quinn and Jennie Pearl)
We’ve been wanting to have Jennie and Dylan on since the beginning of this podcast. This is one for the books, friends.
Dylan Wilder Quinn (they/them) founded TransIntimate in 2020, to build connection and skill-building for cisgender people who want to be close to transgender people to know us beyond our pronouns. Jennie Pearl (she/her) is on the team at TransIntimate, working closely with Dylan. Both Jennie and Dylan are also on the core team at Holistic Resistance.
We can’t really think of two better people to bring in to talk about this intersection of navigating race and gender. Our conversation goes deep into this, and still we an only scratch the surface!
One of the best aspects of this episode is the “story question” that Dylan and Jennie bring in. Take some time with it, and reach out to them if you want to go deeper into it.
