Abstract

Almost a decade after the “trans tipping point,” and in a climate of conservative backlash, what are the biggest challenges, best practices, and engaging pedagogical approaches when teaching media by and about transgender people? This roundtable convened by Nicole Morse and Lauren Herold invites panelists and attendees to critically reflect on their experiences teaching transgender media in the classroom. Participants are encouraged to consider how positionality impacts how they handle “hot moments” in teaching; offer recommendations for effective readings and screening pairings; and share stories of positive classroom experiences when teaching transgender media.
