In a very special episode, and in honor of Transgender Day of Visibility, Candice sits down with her dear friend, Rachel Kaufman. Rachel speaks about how the pandemic impacted her work as a massage therapist and reflects on what it’s like to live as a trans woman during this time of unprecedented political backlash. She generously shares about why she decided to come out as a trans woman, and the many challenges she has faced along the way. She tells us how therapy and a strong support network carried her through her journey of transitioning and speaks to why, as a binary trans woman, she personally yearns to be received plain and simply as a woman, without all the awkwardness and adjectives. Candice digs into why it is we so often inaccurately conflate cognitive dissonance with safety concerns, and the two discuss healthy alternatives to transphobic projections. They explore how misogyny and internalized homophobia so often lead to violence and pathological enforcement of gender norms, and how legislation (even the bills that fail to pass) are actively endangering LGBTQ+ individuals as we speak. Rachel shares tangible examples of how cis gender folks often do harm by treating trans people differently, and she offers some practical tips for self-awareness in an effort to help cis folks up-level their support - from hollow promises of allyship toward meaningful action..Rachel Kaufman is a neurodivergent transgender woman. She was born and raised in the metro area of Portland, OR and currently resides there with her two sweet puppies and bajillion plant babies. As a queer, polyamorous, sex positive and staunchly feminist person, she holds little space for ideals that seek to dehumanize, alienate, invalidate or otherwise harm the people of her community and beyond.She has been a practicing massage therapist since 2011 and owns Thrive Therapeutic Massage in Oregon City, OR. She is passionate about providing a safe, accepting, healing space for all people, all identities, and all bodies.Website: www.thrivetherapeuticmassage.comFB: https://m.facebook.com/ThriveTherapeutic/Insta: @thrivetherapeuticmassage and @rache_againstthemachine.LEARN, SUPPORT &amp; TAKE ACTIONTransgender Day of VisibilityGLAAD | Things You Can Do For Transgender EqualityHuman Rights Campaign | Understanding the Transgender CommunityACLU | Donate to the Legal Fight

Today, we’d like to welcome Rachel Kaufman, a rising second-year graduate student in the Department of History at UCLA.In her own words, Rachel “works on Latin American and Jewish history. Her current research focuses on crypto-Jewish memory practices in New Mexico and Mexico from the late 15th century to the 20th century.” She is the author of the article, ‘Translating History’, published in Rethinking History: The Journal of Theory and Practice (2020). Her Yale senior essay, ‘Whispered Tradition: New Mexico Crypto-Jewish Memory, Origins to 2007’, was published in The Yale Historical Review (Spring, 2019). She is a contributing editor at the Journal for the History of Ideas Blog, where she has contributed pieces about her work.Her poetry has appeared in multiple publications, including but not limited to poets.org, JuxtaProse, The Raw Art Review, Carve Magazine, Levee Magazine, and Good Works Review. She spent the year before she started graduate school in New Mexico, researching and writing her first poetry collection, based on the archival history and collective memory of New Mexican crypto-Judaism and the Mexican Inquisition. The completed work, entitled Many to Remember, was published by Dos Madres Press this past year. A selection of Rachel’s published poetry can also be found on her website: rachel-kaufman.com.In September of 2020, before both of us started our PhD program in History at UCLA, I spoke with Rachel over skype about her work on crypto-Judaism in the New World, the complexities of memory practices, and the importance of poetry in translating the emotions and materiality of the historical archive.
