Sounds Gay, I'm In! Episode December 2, 2020
Trans & Proud
10:59am - 11:59am
While Transgender Awareness Month may have come to a close, we should always be working towards supporting trans folks in our community. In this episode, we talk a bit about: the history of Trans Day of Remembrance; an interview with Kip Chow and Alex Gonzalez, founders of the new student-run UBC Trans Mentorship program; and an interview with Jimmy, a UBC student who shares his experiences as a trans man.
