It’s LGBTQ History Month so to celebrate this and protest Julie Burchill and Suzanne Moore’s recent verbal assault on trans women, LaDIYfest is holding a reading/discussion group about transphobia, transfeminism and the importance of building a more trans-inclusive feminist movement. (If you didn’t follow this verbal assault, see details at storify.com
Readings:
- The Transfeminist Manifesto
- Towards an Insurrectionary Transfeminism (very short)
- Voices from the Trans Community: ‘There will always be prejudice’
This will be a very informal discussion suitable for anyone to attend. If you don’t have time to read all/any of the suggested reading then please come along anyway if you’d like to discuss the issues. Everyone of any gender welcome.
LaDIYFest Sheffield is a DIY, anti-capitalist, community based, feminist festival group run by volunteers, led primarily by women but all are welcome to get involved.
