Please join us for Transpositive on KBOO Community Radio on Tuesday, January 4th at 6 pm as we talk with Carter Lee and Nicolette Schweizer for an in-depth discussion about gender identity and disability from a person-centered perspective. Carter Lee is a disabled nonbinary person who will share their stories of interactions with medical personnel who have misgendered them and failed to address them with dignity and professional respect. Nicolette Schweizer, a regular co-host of Transpositive will share their experiences with health services and the challenges of juggling multiple modes of treatment, providers, and insurance on a limited budget. Carter Lee hopes that by giving disabled queer trans people an opportunity to authentically share their story in the media it will help to raise awareness about the treatment of trans and non-binary people, and especially raise awareness about issues facing trans and non-binary persons with a disability.
