Trans Rights in the UK, Pt.1

This is the first of two special episodes dispelling myths about the transgender rights movement in the United Kingdom and proposing effective models for reforming transgender welfare. Our special guest for the next two episodes is Cat Burton, Chair of the Gender Identity Research & Education Society, whose insightful interview guides us through the sociopolitical and cultural impact of transphobia in the United Kingdom. With Cat, we ask the crucial question- what enables transgender marginality and oppression, and what must be done to combat that inequality?
