Session III: Saturday 3:45-4:45 pm

IDENTITIES: "You Don’t Know What You’ve Got Until It’s Gone: Privilege, Gender and Feminism in the Tranny Millennium"

In a time when privilege is bearing a great deal of scrutiny, it is crucial that trans-identified persons mindfully engage in discussion about the function of privilege within our own lives. This workshop will initiate dialogue about how we can expand the cultural notions of sex and gender without perpetuating the systems that got us in this mess in the first place.

Presenters: Rahne Alexander is a trannyfemme writer, web-producer and theorist from Santa Cruz.

KC Bly is a UCSC graduate and the first Transgender Programs Coordinator for UCSC’s GLBT Resource Center. Dylan Winn Garner is a trannyboy, social psychology major from UCSC.
