The William R. Johnson Intercultural Lecture
Dr. S. Simmons highlights the stories of trans* people in post-secondary education. A full-time lecturer at the University of Chicago, Simmons explores the discrimination, invisibility, harassment as well as community, solidarity and resistance experienced by/with trans* educators.
