We're excited to introduce you to Gender Reveal, an award-winning podcast made by and about trans people. Host Tuck Woodstock interviews LGBTQ+ artists, activists, and educators; answers listener questions; breaks down this week's gender news; and gets a little bit closer to understanding what the heck gender is.
In this episode, Tuck speaks with theorist, author, and abolitionist Da’Shaun Harrison (they/them). Topics include:
The way fatness functions as its own gender
Working towards a better world without hope that we’ll achieve it
Why the concept of health is unsalvageable
Why we’re tired of talking about pronouns with cis people
Plus: destroying gender!
