The Intersection of Food and Trans Identity: A Conversation
Overview
How can we use food to refocus the global narrative around the Trans community away from that of hostility and towards one of care and celebration? What role does food play in building and sustaining the Trans community? How can food-making spaces nurture the social bonds that empower Trans people to create, dream, and rejoice?
Moderated by Dubbs Weinblatt, this conversation brings together Telly Justice, Gabrielle Inès Souza, Luna Vela, and Skylar Mosca as they discuss what it means to move through the world as Trans people and how food is pivotal to their careers, from the joy of cooking as self-expression to the necessity of food access for survival.
