Join us for a screening and panel discussion with the writers and cast of Her Story, an Emmy-nominated new media series that explores the dating lives of trans and queer women in Los Angeles. The series, co-written, directed, and produced by trans women, features a diverse cast with trans actresses in all the trans roles. After the screening, Greta LaFleur, Assistant Professor of American Studies at Yale, will moderate a discussion with series creators and stars Jen Richards, Angelica Ross, and Laura Zak on trans representation in today’s media landscape.
Refreshments to follow! Let us know you’re coming on Facebook here! https://www.facebook.com/events/1817944718474757/
