Trans 201: From Ally to Accomplice
Friday October 11, 2024 1:45pm - 2:45pm PDT
213D
A follow up for folks who have already attended some level of training regarding gender identity and supporting the transgender community, Ally to Accomplice extends a person's knowledge beyond allyship and dives deeper into the roots of anti-trans rhetoric and how to combat it in our schools.

Our country has seen a dramatic increase in the past few years of transphobia and misinformation regarding the transgender and nonbinary community-- in particular regarding the affirmation of our youth. It is important now more than ever that those of us who are allies are ready to take the next step into accompliceship of the gender diverse community; understanding what the sabotage of this work looks like and how to combat the misinformation being spread.

* Refresh your understanding of terms that surround gender identity and the many components that create a society's expectations of gender.
* Deepen your knowledge of how colonization, racism, and misogyny interact with historical trans populations and how this history has shaped current discussions around gender
* Learn necessary skills and data in order to confront anti-trans rhetoric in schools, work, and beyond
