In this episode, we delve into the inspiring life of Frances Thompson, a pivotal figure in transgender history. We trace her journey from her early life in the chains of slavery to her decision to live authentically as a woman in 19th century Memphis, Tennessee. Despite facing unimaginable hardships and prejudice, Thompson became a beacon of resilience, courage, and defiance. Her testimony in front of a congressional committee after the Memphis riots and her resistance against a malicious campaign aimed at suppressing African American rights during the Reconstruction era cemented her place as a trailblazer in transgender history. Join us as we explore Thompson's life and her enduring impact on the fight for transgender rights. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ All donations go to fundraising To Better Understand, Inc., a Black Trans-Owned Educational Non-Profit Organization.
