In the age of anti-trans propaganda, deepfakes, and misinformation, Imara Jones (Journalist and Founder of Translash Media) warns us that media literacy will be a tool we must sharpen over the coming weeks, months, and years. She uplifts the words of Martin Luther King Jr. who in his speech “Love In Action” proclaimed 

“[we] have a moral responsibility to be intelligent.” Imara reminds us that it is our job to be truth-seeking and critical with the information we receive while also sharing our media literacy skills with those around us.

George Strus (Producer and founder of Breaking the Binary Theatre) charges us to increase our engagement with media made about, for, with, and by Trans folks. Whether that’s the plethora of creations through Breaking the Binary Theatre, Translash Media, or some in-house suggestions – Disclosure on Netflix, Will & Harper on Netflix, and Paris is Burning on Max. From media to climate to AI to sports, there are transgender thought leaders who are offering critical solutions for allies and those aligned to take part in.
