Dr. Jordan Peterson, Dave Chappelle, Our Transgender Community, and the Wisdom of Youth
Manage episode 316080986 series 2911329
In my attempt to understand our transgender community a bit better, I sat down with a young man named Brit Abney to hear what he had to say. My invitation stemmed from our friendship on Facebook, and his prolific and compassionate defense of our transgender community within his own friends and followers. We talked specifically about Dr. Jordan Peterson and the controversial C-16 Bill, as well as my favorite comedian, Dave Chappelle, and his Netflix special, The Closer. During our dialogue you'll hear us debate (and disagree) on terminology related to pronouns, triggers, and microaggressions, but more importantly, you'll witness the wisdom of youth in its finest form.
I hope y'all learn as much as I did from Brit.
