Are cis women facing violent transphobia? Absolutely.
Today we talk to a community news reporter who uncovered a story straight news refuses to cover: a cis woman is beaten in Colorado for being “trans,” told that she didn’t belong in Trump’s America. Additionally, we have Gwen Smith’s Gender Nation and updates from TransAdvocae Divisions in Brazil and the UK. The TA Podcast is an intergenerational show featuring a trans Baby Boomer, Gen Xer, and Millennial that considers the issues affecting the lives of trans and intersex people.

Why this article may matter
Community significance
“Are cis women facing violent transphobia? Absolutely.” may matter to community readers because it preserves a first-person or testimonial account connected to community and organizing, while also engaging history, archives, and memory. Such accounts can document how an issue was understood and experienced from within the period or community being discussed.
Historical significance
The article may have historical value because it explicitly interprets or preserves material concerning community and organizing. Published in 2018 by Transadvocate.com, it can be read both for the history it describes and as evidence of how history, archives, and memory was framed at that moment.
Policy significance
The article’s strongest policy connection is public accommodations and facilities and administrative classification and identity documents. It links that institutional frame to community and organizing and history, archives, and memory, making it potentially useful for tracing how an argument moves from description or history into law, regulation, administration, or public practice.
