This morning the MSNBC Melissa Harris-Perry show she had a TG discussion. It was a positive, progressive discussion and dealt with real issues the TG community deals with. The video is online at: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/47054424#47054424

From the main website:

In our second hour, we brought you the voices and stories of transgender Americans. #nerdland guest Kate Bornstein is an author of multiple, fantastic, highly readable and often hilariously engaging books about gender identity in America. Check out Bornstein’s "Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation" -- and Kate’s latest, "A Queer and Pleasant Danger: The true story of a nice Jewish boy who joins the Church of Scientology and leaves twelve years later to become the lovely lady she is today."

When I teach gender identity in my college courses, I often assign the bracing and revealing novel "Stone Butch Blues," by Leslie Feinberg. This text is not about transgender identity per se, but it is a brutally honest account of gender nonconformity within gay communities. To learn more about the political, social and economic agenda of transgender Americans visit the website for the National Center for Transgender Equality, where one of our guests today, Mara Keisling, is the executive director.
