Cracked Ivory
The Anti-Trans Tipping Point
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Emma and Talia are once more joined by Isaac (he/they/ze) to ask a straightforward and simple question: what went wrong after the Trans Tipping Point? How did we go from an optimistic, promising future of shifting cultural tides and legal victories to the embittered, vicious, and cruel reactionary backlash to trans existence? To find the answer, they must look as far as three decades back, trying to grapple with years upon years of anemic advocacy, liberal apathy, and epistemic neglect. Cracked Ivory premieres season two by laying out a roadmap for future episodes on the topic of the third wave of feminism, and how it failed.
