Week 1, Day 4 of #TransLoveNov - Chase Strangio

11/4/2016

Picture of Chase Strangio

On day 4, I send my love to Chase Strangio, an attorney with the ACLU’s LGBT & AIDS Project, who advocates for and with incarcerated trans and gender nonconforming people. He represented TGNC folks when he worked at the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, and founded the Lorena Borjas Community Fund for bond assistance to LGBTQ immigrants. Chase also writes a bunch of smart things, so I follow him on Twitter.

With love and in solidarity.

About that asterisk: This website uses the asterisk (*) as a linguistic disruption of sorts that shifts the meaning of words to intentionally reference from a trans perspective (e.g., trans*form). In most cases, it is not used after the word "trans" as is becoming common in many spaces (see this article for an explanation of the etymology and meaning of trans*), except when directly cited or is part of an already published piece. This is to honor the ongoing discussions and tensions amongst trans communities regarding the use/misuse of the asterisk. See, the following three articles to learn about some of these discussions and tensions: by Julia Serano, by the Trans Student Educational Resources, and by Practical Androgyny.
