Trans Tokenism

I’m thrilled to be joined by the amazing Lucia Blayke this week’s episode. Lucia is the founder of London Trans+ Pride, which attracts thousands to Central London throughout the year to march for trans rights. She is also the founder of Harpies, the UK’s first LGBTQ+ strip club and Transmissions, a network for trans activists.Lucia grew up in Liverpool and at a young age moved to London to study Fashion, find her footing and live her life authentically as a trans woman. At the nightclub she was working at the time, she created Transmissions, a support network turned activist group for trans people which made headlines during the 2019 London Fashion week when they protested to end trans inclusivity for tokenism. Now, two years later, Lucia is the Creative Director of the genderless label ART SCHOOL which has recently headlined London Fashion Week 2021, and is making her mark on the fashion industry by ensuring trans people are consulted and involved at every step of the creative process. In everything that Lucia does, she’s sending out a clear message of visibility and self-love. In this episode, we speak about the importance of finding your own community, how fashion brands can better represent trans folks, and the advice Lucia has for young trans kids. The ask: Listen to trans people, see trans people and remember that they have the same hopes and fears as everybody else.Do you have a comment, question or would you like to share your own advice on Starting Somewhere? You can find me on Twitter (www.twitter.com/saravaughan)  or send me a DM on Instagram (www.instagram.com/saravaughanofficial)  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
