Tuck chats with trans studies scholar and Minneapolis resident Aren Aizura (he/him). Topics include:

  • How a protest camp in the Australian desert helped free dozens of immigrant detainees(!!)
  • How Aren's kids are reacting to ICE occupying their neighborhood
  • How Twin Cities organizing has remained leaderless and decentralized
  • Being subjected to archaic HBIGDA "true transsexual" guidelines and a political background check while trying to access top surgery!?
  • Plus: Australian hippies, tear gas, Tim Walz, the YMCA sauna, and audio of a baby talking to a cat in a bag :)

Through The Wire, a 10-min independent documentary about the 2002 breakout from Woomera Detention Center, is available to stream here. (cw: incarceration, injury, police violence)
