Manage episode 254663596 series 2480282
What do you do when you and your chosen family member are diagnosed with cancer within days of each other? If you’re Brooks Nelson and Yee Won Chong, you eat a lot of pie—and then you make a movie. As two transmasculine people who were treated for cancers often (and incorrectly) associated only with cisgender women, Brooks and Yee Won are using their story to educate and to inspire change. Hear how their documentary, Trans Dudes With Lady Cancer, is busting myths, opening minds, and challenging medical establishments across the country to embrace trans-inclusive healthcare. (Music by Ava Luna, Loyalty Freak Music, Make My Love Your Home, Katrina Stone, Clepsydrae, Monako, and Borrtex.)
Stuff We Talked About on This Episode
