Hope you like it here.This month at Article Club, we’ve been focusing on “Saying Goodbye to my Chest,” by Naomi Gordon-Loebl. If you haven’t read the article yet, I encourage you to do so. In the essay, Gordon-Loebl poignantly and vulnerably discusses her upcoming top surgery. It’s outstanding.Also: I hope you’ll join us to discuss the article on Sunday, February 26, 2:00 - 3:30 pm PT on Zoom. There’s still time to sign up! Article Clubbers are kind and thoughtful and welcoming. Our conversations are always in small, intimate, facilitated groups.I’m excited to share that I had the opportunity to interview Naomi a couple days ago about her brilliant essay. We talked about a number of topics, including:* how it feels to be on the other side of her top surgery* how there’s no one monolithic experience of being trans* how trans people deserve stories of nuance and complexity* how writing is like going down to the bottom of the ocean and noticing what you’re seeing along the way* how educators should treat trans kids (and all kids) in the classroomI hope you take a listen and let me know what you think.Thank you for reading this week’s issue.
