From the Merc:

"Oregon filmmakers Brooks Nelson and Yee Won Chong are trans men and housemates who were both diagnosed with 'lady cancer' around the same time. They decided to see t he strange coincdence as an educational opportunity, and chronicled their treatment in a Kickstarter-funded film." 

We'll be talking with Nelson and Chong about 'Trans Dudes with Lady Cancer.' You can watch Chong's Tedtalk 'Beyond the Gender Binary' here

 

We'll also hear a recording that Alyssa Pariah made over the weekend, in response to the Trump administration's proposed plan to legally assert that biological sex is not changable. The Struggle, Alyssa's new Friday evening program on KBOO, began airing last Friday evening.

 

Music on today's program: Sheila & B. Devotion – Spacer (Extended Rework Stevo’s Spaced Out DUB Edit)

 

We'd hoped to have writer Alexander Chee on the program with us; he was unable to make it. He will be joining numerous authors at the Portland Book Festival in November (formerly called Wordstock).
