Femme Trans Noire | Podcast

Femme Trans Noire 🎙️ Podcast

Get the perspective of a French Caribbean who lives in Paris at the intersection of these 3 identities: Femme, Trans & Black (a Black Trans Woman). Come listen to discussions about culture, politics and really everything that makes our lives what they are. What that may look like is short audio essays, interviews, reviews, etc. Your host, Lily, is soft spoken but not soft. She’s quite comfortable in the binary and may fit your standard but she is really not a fan of respectability politics; because as we know, it has never saved anybody. Over here, it’s feminist, it’s black, it’s inclusive and it’s Caribbean. It’s usually nice and cozy (unless your politics make me reach for the mace). 👀 And there’s a bit of room for learning and mistakes. Come here this and share your opinions (and this podcast) when you’re done! #FTNPod read less

FTN Podcast | 034 - Who Wants To Be A Victim? 🙋🏾‍♀️
So... Can we leave behind the right-wing framing of victimhood being a choice and all that nonsense that really only benefits those with the power to further marginalize the people who are already in the margins? I'm just saying. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Today we discuss what victimhood is and (real quick) we're also talking about the ascension of the far right in France.

FTN Podcast | 033 - Predation on Queer Bodies (including Queer Kids)
Rejecting your queer kids, is serving them on a platter to predators. Yes, it is. Listen to find out what that means and how that translates in your children's lives.

If you are not aware of what is happening in Kanaky (New Caledonia), you'll get the Cliffnotes here as well as a bit about colonial discourse, especially on the media, versus colonial violence enacted on the people.

Sometimes, cis-het men approach trans-het women with a misogynistic mindset.. really, a certain perception of womanhood. But in some phases of our lives, we (trans women) can play the game.

I know the Internet can get a little excessive in its reaction to things but I'm pretty sure most of the heat has dissipated around this topic (at least, I sure hope so). We are talking about non-binary people and their place in the tarns community. We'll also touch on Dylan Mulvaney, but really some cis women's reaction to her song and how it's problematic (the reaction). Let's talk.

FTN Podcast | 023 - Queerness in the Caribbean 🏝️
If you have been around here before, you know I'm a proud black trans woman from Guadeloupe (and yes, that's in the Caribbean and it's a beautiful island). Today, after some interesting TikTok updates, I want to talk about the concepts that shape our understanding of queerness on my island. I wanna know how things go in YOUR area, especially if you are from the Caribbean too. Let's talk! PS. I'm also brushing on Césaire, Glissant & Fanon. I'll also be mentioning some more French Caribbean authors. You are free to come for me in the comments. MY WRITING: So..
