Description

This week Nnekay and James are fighting back against the awful memo that was passed around to major agencies in our government about the definition of gender. Before we get to the main event, James and Nnekay wonder... is Halloween still fun? Speaking of Halloween, Megyn Kelly has some questions about costumes as well, specifically Blackface. Let's just say she's WRONG in her opinions. Luke Cage and Iron Fist are getting cancelled, which makes James wonder if Disney has something up it's sleeves- James also elaborates on his newest obsession: DocuDramas! James kicks of the first korner by explaining what this memo is all about, and how it can impact the lives of Transgender and Gender Non Conforming people. James also gives tips on how we can fight back against this hateful ass memo and what we can uplift and support each other. Nnekay takes the baton by giving more tips on self preservation for POC transgender and gender non conforming people. She also gives a trusty dusty list of books that celebrate and lift up the voices of those apart of the community. Also did James manage to get yelled at by George Takei? I think you know the answer.      Links!   https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/21/us/politics/transgender-trump-administration-sex-definition.html https://transequality.org/sites/default/files/docs/resources/Ally-Guide-July-2016_0.pdf https://www.queerty.com/antigay-gubernatorial-candidates-campaign-no-comment-recent-grindr-activity-20181012 https://www.advocate.com/commentary/2018/10/23/stop-trump-lgbtq-americans-must-do-more-vote https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QQOERH8aGSrxjvByLGgcV31YsHC-g_olRC5h8aCevJk/edit?ts=5bbfed86&utm_source=%23TurnThisThingAround+7-Day+Challenge&utm_campaign=ef71f65300-liz%40lizkimball.com&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b8a56daff3-ef71f65300-230127185&mc_cid=ef71f65300&mc_eid=bb34910e4f     https://www.colorlines.com/articles/practical-poc-tips-fighting-trump-administrations-latest-assault-trans-people   https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2018/10/23/toward-creating-a-trans-literary-canon/?fbclid=IwAR0cnl3zWzUoWxS4Ywrkk_9C-ey-oEvFEWJp4yQ4TnA40o2DXiH6GaIYWTk Twitter: @minoritykorner Email: minoritykorner@gmail.com Like Us On Facebook: Minority Korner
