module 2 lively conversation 4

Janet Mock’s book, Redefining Realness, was one of my favorite memoirs of 2013! 🙂 In it, she narrates her experience as a Black trans girl and mahu (an indigenous Hawai’ian term reclaimed for our contemporary moment) growing up in Los Angeles and Hawai’i.

For this conversation, it might be helpful to reflect on how Mock’s narrative exemplifies intersectionality (one of the key concepts of Module 2).
