Issues of equality, acceptance and the rights of transgender and nonbinary people have become part of a national conversation. These issues can involve words, pronouns, ideas and identities that are new to some – even to those of us in the LGBTQ+ community. In this episode we talk to June Contreras and Brandon Merritt about the Bloom Education Series which is a collaboration by UTEP and the Borderland Rainbow Center that focuses on gender affirming care and self-advocacy. June not only shares her personal story as a trans woman, her and Brandon both help us better understand the trans experience and how we can become more inclusive of trans people.
