Zine: Transness is Our Salve

As you’ll read inside, this zine brings together years of research and community collaboration. It shows how transness and the possibilities transness opens up helped participants heal from the wounds of parental trauma. Inside, you'll find written reflections by researchers and therapists (Joonwoo and Sebastian), quotes from participants, and poetry and visual art created by participants. We've also included artwork by Britchida, some of which was commissioned based on what our participants shared with us.

Note: For the best reading experience, view this zine in full-screen mode on a computer or tablet. If the embedded zine isn’t displaying properly, you can view it on Heyzine’s site here.
